Execute the Sector Strategy Artefact
Synthesise the gathered inputs to produce a definitive creative or games output, such as a publisher pitch asset, production roadmap, or live-ops monetisation schedule. Formulate clear strategic choices regarding self-publishing, publisher backing, or IP licensing.

Complete a rigorous sector asset such as a Publisher Evaluation Matrix, IP Commercialisation Plan, or Production Gate Roadmap with explicit decision points signed off by leadership. Ensure all financial terms, milestone dates, and operational obligations are fully mapped.
