Tiivistelmä
This thesis was lauched with the purpose of evaluating the market potential for a Helsinki based start-up Grib. Grib was established in 2014 in the open environment of Aalto University and was recognized as an innovative project. The main goal of Grib is to provide simple 3D modeling in augmented reality for users without software skills.
The theoretical framework of the study discusses a business-to-business model, as Grib’s final users are companies and enterprises. In addition, it explores product management and the overall state of augmented reality and 3D modeling industries in Europe. As for the empirical part, the thesis is focused on 3D modeling usage at schools in Sweden and Norway. The main objective of the research is to understand whether 3D modeling is a commonly used practice and how Nordic schools use its capabilities to create better experiences among pupils. The letter data has been obtained by conducting interviews with teachers among various secondary leveled educational establishments.
To conclude, having analyzed both primary and secondary information sources, the researcher suggests what opportunities Nordic market is able to offer to Grib.
