You're In Business

VP Selection Limited operates in high-demand sectors like AI and ClimateTech, providing standard executive search utility. However, the submission contains significant red flags, including unsubstantiated and highly exaggerated traction claims ('most people have used my product', 'everyone'), zero evidence of technical innovation, and a nonsensical 'marketcap' metric for a traditional 6-person recruiting business. Due to the lack of verifiable reach and poor submission quality, the project scores in the minimal traction tier.
