Strategic Product Management is bringing together market, competitive and technological drivers into a product strategy that makes sense for your business. We won't tell you where you should be - you know that - we help you work through the details of how to get there, how to address the challenges and in what order.
Our business is backed up by the ipdev.net blog which is a capability statement and documentation of how we see the industry structurally, economically and technologically. Further analysis is available on a private basis.
The final branch of the business is an innovative and entrepreneurial investment in a particular piece of technology to simplify the process of getting content on and off mobile handsets. As yet, we are not fully funded but we would be interested in hearing from anyone keen on partnering with us on such an initiative. -
