Read the following case:
Mr Duc Trang who recently graduated from the University of Harvard with an MSc. in
Computer Science, has spent time researching into the how mathematics is taught at the
Secondary School level in Vietnam. He has been carrying out this research in his hometown,
Lao Cai, in North-western Vietnam. The data collected from both teachers and students has
enabled him to develop an App which can enhance the methods of teaching and learning of
mathematics. A key innovative feature of this App is the use of local dialect to explain some
of the key concepts within the mathematics topics.
The App has been developed through his creativity. His skills in data analytics did play a
significant role in this innovative idea. Although it is not yet commercial, the feedback he has
obtained from his friends who have seen this App is very promising and have subsequently
encouraged him to go commercial with this product. For this to happen, he needs to set up a
company and put measures in place to protect the ownership of the product.
Mr. Duc Trang also has plans to enter contractual agreement with the Ministry of Education
to push for the App to be used by the secondary schools in the entire country. Another key
contractual arrangement he has been thinking of is that of Google and Apple platforms where
the App will be hosted. It looks like there is a lot of work to be done for all these objectives to
be achieved. He has therefore approached you for help with the below question:
What are the critical elements required in entering a contract with Google and Apple?
