Great products only succeed when user needs, technology, and business align. Peter Møller-Jensen explores this three-legged foundation of innovation, sharing practical insights into balancing the trilemma and assessing the investability of new product ideas.
16.00 Our current challenges – with the newest startups in Future Manufacturers
Startups from Future Manufacturers will each give a short presentation of their current manufacturing related challenges – and hopefully others in the room can provide advice or connections to help them. Challenges could include anything from decisions about materials, sourcing of components, mechanical design issues to CE marking, packaging and make-or-buy decisions. And much more.
