How to approach this case
A market entry case comes down to answering three questions in order: is the market worth it, can the client win there, and how to go in. Estimate the size and growth of the market, look at who is already there and what protects those players, then set that picture against the client's real strengths. The entry mode (alone, through a partnership, through an acquisition) comes last and depends on what you found before. The usual grid organises these questions well, but it breaks as soon as the case turns on one specific point, such as regulation or distribution: that point is then what you need to structure.
This case involves calculations: talk through your arithmetic out loud, round when it is reasonable and state the order of magnitude you expect before the exact result.
