So where should you start? What things do you need to consider at the outset to turn your idea into reality? Starting with an overview of the product development process\, this webinar will move onto the most important\, and often the most overlooked aspect of product development – understanding the user. \n  \nTopics to be covered include: \n  \n·         The key things to consider from the outset of any development programme \n·         The importance of putting the user first \n·         How to obtain useful user insights \n·         How to leverage those insights to make a better product \n \nTuesday 10th November 2020\n\n\n\nFacilitator\nDanny Godfrey\, Co-Founder\, eg Technology \nIn 2002\, Danny and Andrew founded eg technology ltd\, a product design engineering company based in Cambridge UK. They have grown the company organically since then\, and now employ over 30 engineering and commercial staff. \nDanny’s role is to provide corporate leadership\, develop new business opportunities and oversee the technical and strategic direction of projects. He remains involved with the work that eg does\, from the initial proposal writing\, technical & creative input\, design implementation\, review processes and the early identification of development risks. Motivating staff and nurturing client relationships are important aspects of Danny’s day-to-day work – valuing and developing our team of bright\, can-do people and ensuring clients are satisfied with what eg does have been the foundations of success for the company. \nDanny is also a member of the MedTech Accelerator Awards Committee. This organisation supports and finances projects for early-stage companies in the medical sector to create future spin-out companies that aim to bring new life-enhancing technologies to market. \n \n\n\nWebinar\nSession Title\nDate\n\n\n2\nDefining User and Product Specifications During Product Development \n  \nThis webinar will cover what User Requirement Specification (URS) and Product Requirement Specification (PRS) are\, how they differ and how to define them during the product development process. The webinar will end with an interactive quiz. \n  \nTopics to be covered include: \n  \n·         What is a URS and PRS and how do they differ? \n·         What do the standards ask for? \n·         Where do the URS and PRS sit in the product design and development process? \n·         Writing the URS and PRS – best practices \n·         Things to watch out for \n·         Interactive quiz \n \nTuesday 17th November 2020\n\n\nFacilitator\nKella Kapnisi\, Project Manager\, eg Technology \nKella works as part of the project management team.
