A product roadmap is a critical and essential element of any startup's strategy. Vinod Muralidhar, MSx '15, Head of Product @ Nitrio, and over 15 years of product development experience, will explain what a product roadmap is, key elements of a successful roadmap, and cover the following difficult questions often faced by founders or product team members: * How do I balance customer needs vs funding needs (products for investors) in building a product roadmap? * How do I differentiate my product in a crowded market - Marketing white space vs Product white space? * How much process is too much process during product development for a small team? Vinod will also talk about his experiences and be available for Q&A on the product development process, or on product management as a career or function within a startup.
