Early Stage Company Strategy and New Product Development
Idea...To Product...To Market
|
From your first napkin drawings to your first press coverage, we will help your initial idea become a market reality. From full-time, on-site interim roles to retainer status, we work with clients to find the right package. Our clients are typically web and mobile technology-focused companies, and we bring domain expertise from biotech and educational technology. However, if you have an exciting idea that lies outside those fields, feel free to reach out.
