The key takeaways are consistency in decision making, prioritizing breakthrough innovative projects like supercapacitors, and focusing on long term profits over short term gains.

The overall strategy was to prioritize investment in innovative breakthrough projects like supercapacitors while also maintaining investment in the existing profitable AGM business. The strategy aimed to maximize long term cumulative profits through consistent decision making.

The highest priority projects for investment were supercapacitors as a disruptive innovative technology and increasing its energy density. AGM projects around process improvements were also invested in for maintaining revenues.

1
These strategy applied over all the rounds of Simulation.
2 Investment in Supercapacitors is a Breakthrough Project.
It is actually a DISRUPTIVE INNOVATION. So, for
3 innovation purpose maximum investment Energy Density
has been done. However, AGM was not overlooked
becasue revenue contributing 80% of total was coming
4 from AGM only.
Ultracapacitors
Decision was not changed as per market requirement or Invesments -
