All too often product-driven organizations struggle to create products that build business value. Creating successful products begins with discovering a product concept that is valuable, feasible and scalable. We will discuss key questions to help you assess whether your concept can become a great product customer love. This session discusses why it’s important for product vendors to grow strong, committed product teams and implement a well-defined process to consistently build new products that customers demand to create a sustainable competitive advantage.
