Growth opportunity Analysis

              As cinemas in India are more digitized and because of this UFO face challenges for its growth. In this scenario, CEO analyzed some risk related to its business. With a slow pace of invention of new cinemas, he was a little bit worried that it will go to freeze its performance.

Alternatives:

There was three option provided. Firstly was to keep the target on cinema advertisement business. Secondly was to strengthen its technology in other sectors and the Third option was to enter into distribution business.

  1. If they target an advertisement business of cinemas:

Pros

  1. If they enter in distribution business:

  • Can get more number of contracts.

 Cons:

  • Employers may get dissatisfied.
  • No knowledge of distributers and this will create inefficiency.

             Option Chosen:

According to my point of view, UFO movies should adopt a second option which tells for the advancement of technology in another sector. This is a running business which holds a big amount of retained earnings. For this option, some initial investment is to be done in other sectors so that some advancement is to be done. The CEO of UFO should send his employees for training in abroad. There Hollywood movies are shown, and their digital system is more advanced than Indians. Their technology is already so much advanced and if its work is applied in home country it will enhance is productivity and performance in the market.........................
