Why is that? The journ ey from a glimmer of a new idea to a commercially winning product is lon g and arduous\, with many steps and decisions along the way. This event will identify the most common causes of new product failure and propose action to avoid those problems in the future. The discussion will range from the fuzzy front end to sales support and from individual to team to market challenges. \;\n \;\nTwo of the most experienced Product Managers in Portland\, with combined new product experience of over 50 y ears\, will illustrate the causes of failure with real-world examples. Audience members will have time to pose questions\, offer comments and e xchange ideas on this important and challenging topic. \;\n \;\ nEveryone involved in product planning and product development from eith er the engineering or marketing side will benefit. The causes that will be explained apply to start-up companies as well as large\, established corporations. By attending\, you’ll be able to go back to your product d evelopment activities and quickly assess if you’re at risk of becoming a victim of one or several of these all too common pitfalls. \;\n \;\nThis event will be at: \;\nPortland State Business Accelerator 3\;\nintersection of SW Corbett Ave. &\; SW Meade St. \;\nPortland \, OR 97201 \;\n \;\nBe aware that this location can be difficult to find.
