Training Course Overview

Why do most new products fail?

The primary reason for failure is often attributed to developing products without sufficient market consideration right from the outset of the innovation process.

When considering a potential new product, innovators frequently focus heavily on its technical aspects, sometimes overlooking the critical need for commercial success in the market.

Therefore, it is crucial for all involved in new product innovation, regardless of their role, to adopt a market-oriented mindset. This approach involves scrutinizing new product ideas from a market perspective, identifying those with genuine market potential, and substantiating their selection with a robust Business Case to justify investment. Additionally, proper market support post-launch is essential for sustaining new products.

This Innovating Products: Invent, Justify and Market training course equips delegates with the skills to innovate with a market-centric approach, select viable product ideas, substantiate their choices with compelling Business Cases, and effectively market their innovations. Adopting this methodology significantly enhances the likelihood of success for new product initiatives.
