Two months after I started my thesis with my classmate, she was supposed to call the shots, but it changes after I decided to be in charge and corner the market.

We sadly had to back to the drawing board and make it better. It took more time that wasn´t planed and with less budget we had to belt-tightening and redid some stuffs again.

Finally, we finished it some time later (better later than never) and we sold our research to an international company. At the end our thesis became a cash cow!
