Key challenges we tackle
To capitalize on emerging trends and moving markets, businesses need to act with agility, adaptability and foresight.
How can we define the value and business case of our idea?
It’s easy to fall in love with a new idea, but much harder to find the way to derive the most value from it.
We help to define the business value inherent in new ventures – and work closely with internal and external experts to identify the best way forward.
How can we decrease the time-to-market?
With complex groups of stakeholders and multiple sources of complexity, new ventures can all too easily get slowed down.
We work in small, iterative teams (or teams of teams) to reduce complexity and increase velocity.
How can I ensure my MVP is well scoped?
Too often, new launches are overloaded with too many features that aren’t prioritized effectively.
We work with teams to find out what is most important for the customer and the business – increasing time to market and quality through streamlined roadmaps.
Benefits
Key outcomes
Successful market launches
Market launches that bring increased customer satisfaction – with engaging experiences, validated features and stress-tested business models – leading to scalable new ventures that can be ‘spun in’ to the business or ‘spun out’ as standalone ventures.
Faster time to market
Launches that take months not years – by working in agile sprints that are constantly prioritized and reprioritized, with iterative releases rather than a ‘big launch’ – in teams that learn to work in new ways to maximize speed without compromising quality.
Continuous de-risking
Continuous testing with customers based on low fidelity and high-fidelity functional prototypes – using experiments based on testing the most critical assumptions at any point in time – helping to minimize risk and prioritize investment on features that are proven to show the most customer and business value.
