Everyone working on a new product is trying to achieve the same goal: product-market fit. Although product-market fit is one of the most important Lean Startup concepts, it’s also the least well defined. Dan Olsen shares the top advice from his book The Lean Product Playbook, including the Product-Market Fit Pyramid: an actionable model that breaks product-market fit down into 5 key elements. Dan also explains the Lean Product Process, a 6-step methodology with practical guidance on how to achieve product-market fit, illustrated with a real-world case study.

We analyze purchase data from 493 customers of an e-commerce store selling experience gifts to find how gender correlates with average purchase value, category of purchased products, and the use of discount codes. We find no significant differences for average purchase value or category of purchased products, but according to the data, women are more likely to use discount codes than are males. Ideas for further research concerning the gender effect on online shopping behavior are discussed.

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder
India Orthopedic Devices Market: Unlocking Growth Secrets, Trends and Develop...Kumar Satyam
According to TechSci Research report, “India Orthopedic Devices Market -Industry Size, Share, Trends, Competition Forecast & Opportunities, 2030”, the India Orthopedic Devices Market stood at USD 1,280.54 Million in 2024 and is anticipated to grow with a CAGR of 7.84% in the forecast period, 2026-2030F. The India Orthopedic Devices Market is being driven by several factors. The most prominent ones include an increase in the elderly population, who are more prone to orthopedic conditions such as osteoporosis and arthritis. Moreover, the rise in sports injuries and road accidents are also contributing to the demand for orthopedic devices. Advances in technology and the introduction of innovative implants and prosthetics have further propelled the market growth. Additionally, government initiatives aimed at improving healthcare infrastructure and the increasing prevalence of lifestyle diseases have led to an upward trend in orthopedic surgeries, thereby fueling the market demand for these devices.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

Marvin neemt je in deze presentatie mee in de voordelen van non-endemic advertising op retail media netwerken. Hij brengt ook de uitdagingen in beeld die de markt op dit moment heeft op het gebied van retail media voor niet-leveranciers.
Retail media wordt gezien als het nieuwe advertising-medium en ook mediabureaus richten massaal retail media-afdelingen op. Merken die niet in de betreffende winkel liggen staan ook nog niet in de rij om op de retail media netwerken te adverteren. Marvin belicht de uitdagingen die er zijn om echt aansluiting te vinden op die markt van non-endemic advertising.

2. STRUCTURE
1. What is customer development?
2. Steps of customer development
3. Principles of customer development
4. Barriers of customer development
5. Other ways of validation: landing pages, crowdfunding
3. WHAT IS CUSTOMER
DEVELOPMENT?
A method of validating demand for a (software) product by
developing hypotheses (”guesses”) and then testing them
objectively ”outside the building”. The goal is to enable a
scalable startup by finding a repeatable sales model.
The method is developed by Steve Blank of Stanford
University.
6. CUSTOMER DEVELOPMENT
= RESEARCH
Takes usually the form of semi-structured interviews (=method).
You want to avoid both false positives - i.e., getting the
impression your idea is good although it sucks; and false
negatives which is to conclude the idea is bad although in reality
it's not (=objectivity).
You want to create pull instead of push. For that, you need to first
find the right product and market (=research purpose). (Market
risk is higher than technology risk.)
8. 1. DON’T FOCUS ON
YOUR PRODUCT
Don't ask about your product, ask about their problem. Wrong
question: "We have this product A - would you use it?". Right
question: "Do you ever have this problem B?" [that you think the
product A will solve]
“Abstract your problem by a level. For example, if you want to
know whether someone will use a healthy lunch delivery service,
ask about ‘lunch’” (Cindy Alvarez)
9. 2. LISTEN, DON’T PITCH
Pitching is for other times - you DON'T need to sell your product
to this person, you only need to hear about his or her life.
“Shut up for 60 seconds. This is a LONG, LONG time and it feels
awkward. It also forces the person to go beyond the short (and
probably useless) answer and go into detail.” (Cindy Alvarez)
10. 3. REPEAT, REPEAT
Repeat what he or she says - many times people think they
understand what the other person is saying, but they don't. Only
by repeating with your own words and getting them to nod "That's
right" you can make sure you got it.
11. 4. MAKE NOTES
Make notes - obviously. You don't want to forget, but without notes
you will.
12. 5. ”WOULD’VE
SHOULD’VE…DIDN’T”
Don't ask "would you" questions, ask "did you" questions. People
are unable to predict their behavior, but they can fairly well tell
what they have done.
13. 6. AVOID LOADED
QUESTIONS
Avoid loaded questions. False: "Is this design good?" Correct:
"What do you think of this design?"
14. 7. AVOID ”YES OR NO”
Avoid yes/no questions. What would you learn from them?
Nothing.
Avoid yes/no questions. Whichever one the person chooses, it's
probably not useful for you. (Cindy Alvarez)
15. 8. DON’T VALIDATE,
DISPROVE
Focus more on disproving your idea rather than validating it. In
philosophy of science, this is called falsificationism. It means not
claim can be proved absolutely true, but every claim can be
proved wrong. Rather than wanting to prove yourself right (at the
risk of making a false positive), you want to prove yourself wrong
and avoid wasting time on a bad idea.
Remember: most startup ideas suck (it's true - I've seen
hundreds, and most will never amount to real business - be very,
very critical about your idea).
16. 9. REACH FOR
SATURATION
Make many interviews.
Many = as long as you notice there are no more new insights. In
research, this is called saturation. You want to reach saturation
and make sure you've identified the major patterns.
17. 10. WAIT FOR IT…
Only in the very end introduce your solution. Then ask openly
what he or she thinks about it: "What do you see problematic
about it?" Also ask if they know someone who would like this
solution.
“Avoid talking about your product or your ideas until the end - but
then DO give the person the opportunity to ask you some
questions. This is NOT a chance for you to sell your idea, it's just
an equalizer. You've been asking questions the whole time, now
it's their turn.” (Cindy Alvarez)
18. EXAMPLE QUESTIONS
(CINDY ALVAREZ)
• How is your customer currently dealing with this task/problem?
(What solution/process are they using?)
• What do they like about their current solution/process?
• Is there some other solution/process you’ve tried in the past that was better or
worse?
• What do they wish they could do that currently isn’t possible or practical?
• If they could do [answer to the above question], how would that make their
lives better?
• Who is involved with this solution/process? How long does it take?
• What is their state of mind when doing this task? How
busy/hurried/stressed/bored/frustrated? [note: learn this by watching their
facial expressions and listening to their voice]
• What are they doing immediately before and after their current
solution/process?
• How much time or money would they be willing to invest in a solution that
made their lives easier?
19. BARRIERS OF CUSTOMER
DEVELOPMENT
• Social desirability bias (they want to please you)
• Recall bias (they remember wrong)
• Confirmation bias (you want to be right)
• ”Build it and they will come”
• Internalizing problem
These are fancy names meaning that you want people
to tell you honestly what they think, and you want to
interpret it in an objective way, not being too fixed on
your initial assumption (i.e., hypothesis). Be ready to
change your opinion, like Gandhi advised.
20. NON-INTERVIEW
METHODS, E.G. TESTING
VIA LANDING PAGES
a. Force customers to pay from the beginning - this way you
see if the thing you’re building has value to anyone.
b. MVP. Create first the non-scalable, bare minimum solution.
This is not even a product, it's a service. Use manual labor over
technology and get the user information through free tools like
Google Forms, and track everything with analytics.
The advantage is that you get hard data, not opinions. The
disadvantage is that hard data doesn’t tell you why.
21. OTHER WAYS OF
VALIDATION:
CROWDFUNDING
• Before, to manufacture a product you needed money from
investors.
• Now, you can collect that money through crowdfunding from
buyers of that product.
• Benefits
1. Pre-test concepts before production
2. Gain valuable customer feedback
3. Gain legitimacy for investors
4. Generate actual sales before even building.
