Come join us for a two-day workshop that promises to be intense enough to warrant using the term 'bootcamp'. If you are responsible for developing new product or new business strategies, this workshop is for you. You will learn the concepts and tools that will help you frame a product or business opportunity as a testable hypothesis that can be modeled and evaluated in both qualitative and quantitative ways. You learn the tools and best practices to develop and frame your strategy quickly and comprehensively, to understand the potential value and key risks that stakeholders care about, and to plan for quickly and cost effectively reducing the risks and uncertainties.
This is a packed bootcamp that will cover full scope of new product strategy development, from conception through initial market validation. It will cover both the key concepts and practical application with some hands-on exercises. We will cover a lot of ground in two days, but by the end, you will have the knowledge to develop a clear new product strategy, build a preliminary market forecast model, and plan the critical first steps to validate your strategy and build confidence in the opportunity for you and your stakeholders.
The instructors for this bootcamp have decades of firsthand experience as new product managers, intrapreneurs, corporate incubator leaders, and venture capital investment experience. They've experienced all sides of the new product strategy development process and have condensed those many years of hard-won lessons and best practices into a curriculum that will help you accelerate your own new product journey.

On Day 2 of the bootcamp we will be using BRI's Growth Forge software to facilitate the financial modeling & analysis. Attendees will be required to bring their laptops to access the service and work individually. Technical requirements include WiFi and a modern web browser (Chrome, Safari, Edge, Firefox).
The venue is still being finalized but will be in downtown Portland or in the Beaverton area. This space will be updated when finalized and attendees will get a final confirmation with all the details before the event.
