P2P: Prototype to Product

Thursday 2nd June, 2011, 9am to 4pm
Alba Innovation Centre, Alba Business Park, Livingston, EH54 7EG

The majority of New Product Development projects fail somewhere between prototype and launch. The reasons for this are varied, but centre on the failure of companies to consider all the elements of the business model. This practical workshop covers the key areas that companies need to consider to improve their chance of success.

The event will be a practical, hands-on workshop and is aimed at SMEs who are developing or are planning to develop new products or services, particularly in the wellness and health sector.

P2P: Product to Prototype is hosted jointly by Wellness and Health Innovation and the Product Realisation Centre.

This is a FREE seminar. To register please email: info@wellnesshealthinnovation.org or call 0845 607 8787.
