U.S. - Boston
Wed, Dec 1, 2021, 12:00 PM (EST)

About this event

Companies still launch lots of dud products. Ryan studies this, and how to develop and launch winners. His research speaks to innovators' universal question: If I build it, will they come? Despite best efforts to test and forecast consumer demand, commercializing new innovations is fraught with uncertainty, and most fail.
