It's very easy to start building full-product instead of MVP.
In this presentation you'll find answers to the following questions:
What is MVP with real-life examples?
Why do you need MVP?
How to recognize if what you are building is MVP or a full product?
What is Minimal Quality for a Minimal Product?
Tips and Tricks of how to test idea
5 steps to go from waterfall to MVP
MVP: Minimum Viable Product vs. Maximum Value ProductLiquid Reality
Start-ups and product reboots are all thinking the same thing - how quickly can we get to market? The app market is break-kneck, and being first-to-market, or soon-to-market can be important, but, not at the expense of quality. In this talk we'll explore the motivations for being first, and argue the values of being "better"
From experience, we'll focus on how to convince clients and stakeholders to buy-in to quality over "fast" - as a philosophy, as a differentiator, and as a process to making it happen.
Anyone can make an app - just look at any of the app stores, but only the ones that focus on the customer, on quality, and on the entire experience as a whole will succeed.
This talk will give you a roadmap to create better products, get and keep clients on-board with your direction, and deliver outstanding products to the market.
The interest generated from our Slideshare on How to build a MVP app, inspired our CEO Jonathan Tarud to create a more in-depth Webinar version filled with tons of resources to get you started on Building your MVP. Learn how to get started, identify your idea & niche, use your resources, things to avoid, and common mistakes app builders make.

Have questions? Tweet @Adriana_Herrera or email adriana [at] openbubbles dot com.
Over the past several years, the lean startup movement has made the Minimal Viable Product (MVP) a key approach to incrementally discovering effective products and services. In this talk, Levent Gurses will discuss a 5 step MVP process for building great minimum viable products that's been used in real client engagements. His process has been developed working with more than 20 enterprise full-stack and mobile clients over the course of several years. Topics will include the challenges of creating the MVP vision, scoping the activity, what should an MVP cost in time and money, and what should you have when you are “done”. Not only sharing his tales of MVP development, he will provide insights in how he's developed methods to effectively drive vision and development execution.
What is an MVP?
A product that has the absolute minimal set of core features necessary to prove a hypothesis, generally linked to commercial success or market validation. The MVP seeks the highest return on investment versus risk.
The Rise of the Lean Startup Movement
The lean startup movement came about as a result of analysis of many startup successes and failures. Development timeframes have become shorter and customer engagement has increased, which is helping companies better product-market fit and a path to success.
Presentation Outline:
• The MVP Vision (What will I have at the end of the effort?)
• Brief history of the lean startup movement
• Scoping
• Budgeting for MVP
• Features: The MVP Way
• Essential vs. peripheral features
• Must have to prove a hypothesis vs. nice to have
• Assembling a team
• Hiring contractors or vendor firms to build the MVP
• Choosing a technology
• Fake it until you make it: How to create mock features for an MVP

Building a great online experience is more important than ever to succeed at digital marketing. For many companies, building this experience and their online brand to effectively compete, is beyond their budget. Tomorrow's marketing stack relies on the power of WordPress and its ecosystem to do just that at a fraction of what this would have cost a decade ago. Joost will explain what this marketing stack is, why it's so great for SEO, and how everyone, from Disney to the local baker, can use these tools.
Are you ready to build an MVP? Where do you start? How do you know what features to build? How do you know how many people you need to build it? How do you know that they are building a right thing in a right way? This presentation and conversation will explore strategies for assembling effective teams for building and deploying an MVP while incurring minimal Product and Technical Debt. We will also discuss implementing an effective process to make sure that your MVP will be built on time and on target.

Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

2. From the moment you decide to move forward with your
mobile or web application, you’re faced with a tough
question:
Should you build the product in-house, or hire an
external team (tech agency)?
#TechAgencyQA
3. You want to to build your
product in the easiest and
most cost efficient way, but It
can be exhausting and costly
to build an in-house team and
it wastes valuable time
If you hire a tech agency, you
can have a full, experienced
team at your service-ready to
create a great digital product
for your business.
TECH AGENCY
#TechAgencyQA
IN-HOUSE
4. After careful consideration, you decide your best option is to hire a
tech agency to build your product.
#TechAgencyQA
5. There are thousands of tech agencies out there, so you have a ton
of options. This can be a confusing, overwhelming process. Many
people are in the dark about what it actually takes to build a mobile
or web application.
#TechAgencyQA
8. What to look for: The tech agency should have an established process for
communicating with clients. Transparent communication is essential to execute
your vision. Do they use Basecamp, InvisionApp, or Trello for project
collaboration? Are they available on Skype during working hours and will
respond to you immediately?
They should be able to communicate clearly and patiently, without loads of tech
jargon.

10. #TechAgencyQA
A great tech agency won’t ask you to ‘take their word for it’. They’ll have plenty
of successful case studies to back up their claims.
What to look for: Ideally, the tech agency will list their case studies or portfolio
on their website, so you can easily access it. That way, you can check out similar
apps, test them out, and see how they perform. Or a Sales rep will be able to put
together a one pager of examples for your industry.

11. WHAT IS YOUR ESTIMATED TIMELINE
FOR FINISHING THE PROJECT?3
12. Mobile and web applications are known to take longer and become more
complicated than planned. That’s because small, incremental changes can build
up into a mountain of additional work.
What to look for: These additional costs can be prevented-or, at least, controlled
to a point. Your tech agency should keep up-to-date schedules and
specifications.
Make sure the tech agency can articulate the repercussions of an additional ask.
You may crave an extra feature, but when you see how much it pushes the
schedule back, you just might change your tune.
Most projects can be done in 2-4 month cycles. Having a development agency
tell you it will take longer than a year, is taking their time.
#TechAgencyQA
14. What to look for: Ideally, your tech agency will have at least 5
years of experience. They’ve been steadily building, and have a
track record of success.
Here at Koombea, we pride ourselves in this area. With over 7
years of experience, we’ve clocked more hours than most agencies
can imagine!

16. The more developers they have, the more resources the tech
agency can dedicate to your project. With a smaller company, this
could mean that new projects can’t start on time.
What to look for: Your tech agency should have at least 6
developers. The more, the merrier. Having a developer working on
a different project give his two sense, can help give key insight for
the other. A bigger firm will have more people to draw on to solve
technical problems.
#TechAgencyQA
18. What to look for: Unlike Waterfall (a traditional dev method), Agile
methodology cuts down the big picture into puzzle pieces. A tech
agency who uses the Agile Development process can adapt to
change at the end of each stage, without rewriting the entire
application.
At Koombea, we use Agile Development. Not only does it save
costs, but it streamlines communication. We start the week with a
planning meeting, and chat briefly each weekday afterward about
the status of development. At the end of the week, we review all of
the work delivered, and note anything we couldn’t finish. This week
of work is called a sprint.

20. When it comes to product development, many business make the
mistake of waiting too long to take the product to market.
And because of this mistake, many products never even launch. Or,
if they do launch, the market is already saturated with competitors…
#TechAgencyQA
22. But you can avoid this costly mistake, and still launch a
high-performing product in your niche.
The secret? A Minimum Viable Product (MVP).
What to look for: Your tech agency should build you a Minimum
Viable Product. That way, you’ll have just enough of the core of
your product so that you can get it to users and collect
feedback—and start getting paid.
