I've seen 10,000 dollar projects turned down with better justification than those you list so if you would slap down 450 million for them your bank needs to find a competant loan manager. I personally don't have much respect for investment bankers who as a class seem to believe that shuffling assets around in mergers and acquisitions has more value than making better products or making them more efficiently. They seem a lot like politicians to me. People with a whole lot more clout than knowledge who get by as much through connections and grandstanding as real accomplishments.

Now I'm sure you are a cut above the norm and wouldn't actually risk your companies assets on such nebulous schemes, but don't expect me to be impressed by the title and accept that these are good investments on your say so. I do my own investing and have enough knowledge through that experience as an investor and through both company provided business training and engineering training to know you need more than maybes and might coulds to plunk down major investments.

Mark
