Things to Consider to Ensure a Successful Minimum Viable Product (MVP) This presentation will look at some remarkably successful companies that started with an idea, built a Minimum Viable Product, and never looked back. Learn the patterns and approaches they applied that led to their success and that keep them innovative in a competitive market space. We will examine several case studies from Dropbox, AirBnB, Groupon, Twitter, and Spotify. Then we will define what a MVP is and how the approach can be applied using tools like the Lean Canvas. We will look at 10 MVP patterns and approaches that can be applied to validate your product with your market. Just to keep it real the presentation will close with some reasons why MVPs fail.
