These categories describe different parts of the consumer economy; they do not imply identical customers or business models.
How to compare projects
Begin with what the company sells and how it reaches customers. A retailer, a manufacturer and a leisure operator can appear in the same sector while offering very different research contexts. Compare the specific activity and the author's reasoning, not just the sector label.
Projects follow the categories assigned in the Orbitrum application. This collection supports research and discovery; it is not an investment ranking.
