Project Goal: Develop extra-terrestial advertising.
Corporate projections indicate major markets on Earth will be exhausted within the next 20 years. In order to meet growth projections we will need to exploit extra-terrestrial markets, whatever they may be.
Steal a march on our competitors by designing and deploying a marketing campaign that will reach our future markets before they do.

Project Goal: Test all the automated 'X days since an accident' signs
Dotted around the company are numerous highly advanced signs which monitor the number of days since an accident, automatically resetting to zero when an accident is detected within their purview. All these signs need to be tested to check if they are functioning as intended:

Project Goal: Implement Focus Testing Ideas to rebrand the company
The company's image has been rather lacklustre of late. To this end, we have conducted extensive focus testing (the results of which can be found in Archive Room 981-D, Cabinet 37 in Row 14 881.
You need to work these ideas into practical solutions for the polishing of our corporate image to bring it in line with our in-house projections.

Project Goal: Make the news, and report it first.
The Company wants a share of the global news market. The Company also notes that current world events are insufficiently interesting. Hire, train, or build us a world-class news team. Then make news happen, and make sure the cameras are rolling.

Project Goal: To acquire the space for a corporate museum
The plans for a corporate museum that will be the envy of the world have been laid, simultaneously striking our competitors down with awe and also allowing us to effectively brand history. The company requires a pentagonal plot of land at least one mile to a side. Unfortunately all existing corporate land has been designated “off-limits” by PRM&S for project hypno-shrubbery. Therefore new land will will need to be acquired, minimising costs is key!

Project Goal: Sell dangerous animals to small children.
The Company's latest generation of genetically engineered war-animals was unexpectedly miniaturized, rendering them unsuitable for combat operations. Further, they show tendencies to attack one another on sight, and hide in small places when idle. Find a way to make them appeal to children, and get them on shelves before they destroy each other.

Project Goal: Increase Workforce Efficiency
The elimination of the weekend and the introduction of the 30 hour day lead to unprecedented gains in workforce efficiency. We need a new way to make employees work harder or a new way to make harder employees. Either way this is needs to be a cutting edge scheme combined with an integrated marketing strategy to sell the new scheme to employees. An eye-catching name will be key.

Project Goal: Deal with 10,000 malfunctioning radioactive spiders
Project Homo Arachno Alpha, designed to provide superior battlefield operatives for the urban environment and as an attempt to capture a segment of the Velcro market, has been a dismal failure. It seems the radioactive arachnids bestow the absolute as opposed to relative strength of a spider on test subjects and that silk production necessitates an intake of unhealthy levels of trans-fats. We need to salvage this project by either by finding a way to market the 10,000 radioactive spiders created or by correcting the design problems and disposing of the failed prototypes.

Project Goal: Aquire ancient financial instruments
Intelligence suggests that our competitors are interested in acquiring several privately owned archeological sites located in the Middle East and Northern Europe. In line with the company's core strategic objective of maximising ownership, company employees are instructed to acquire any ancient financial instruments that may be of use in company marketing campaigns or in a new company museum. This may nessesciate a rigorous retraining regime to produce qualified corporate archeologists.
