Geometric aggregation of 690 pairwise judgments from 15 experts yielded the following SWOT priorities, in descending order: opportunities (0.380255), strengths (0.264294), threats (0.226549), and weaknesses (0.128902). O1 and S4 received the highest global weights. SO1 ranked first under all four baseline scoring rules. When the SWOT dimension weights were varied one at a time, SO1 ranked first by raw score in all 24 scenarios and by mean factor weight in 18 of the 24 scenarios. A separate sensitivity analysis of local factor weights showed that SO1 retained the highest raw score in 119 of 120 scenarios. The Business Model Canvas and implementation roadmap present design proposals for subsequent feasibility assessment. [Reviewer 2, Comments 1.4, 2.1, and 1.7]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</abstract>
