The MVP as the fastest and most efficient strategy to build new things.

A very nice summary on why we are big proponents of this approach.

The idea of the minimum viable product (MVP) has been around for some time. The term itself was coined by Frank Robinson but was made popular by two influential names in product design – Steve Blank,...

Urs Bucher is opening up an Innovation Lab for Farner Consulting, and we are on board as an implementation partner for digital products.

We can't wait for the first things to emerge out of the lab.

Ende November 2018 öffnen wir die Türen des Farner Labs in Zürich. Dort zeigen wir Marken und Organisationen, wo die Trends an der Schnittstelle zwischen Technologie, Design und Marketing sind und wie wir sie hier und jetzt (oder bald) einsetzen können, um bessere Markenerlebnisse zu entwickeln.

Earlier this year we did an experiment to see whether we could take an idea and release an MVP within 4 days.

We wanted to create an app that was fast to implement and also added value to the user - Minimal but Viable. The goal was to build an app which had the mechanics needed to decide whether our assumptions were right and we should continue our pursuit of the project.

Find out how it went. And maybe give the app a spin.

Congratulations to Earlybird on their continued success delivering fresh food to Zurich's office workers.

When we met the founders a few years back, they were stuck in the development of their site. Instead of selling them another IT project we consulted them to validate their idea with a standard solution. We did not want them plowing more money into a failed website project. Listen to the story in this Swiss-German podcast with founder Tim Schmid. We make an appearance as "the guy" in the second half, but the whole story is worth a listen.

“We look like pro cooks these days, [but] the first time we were in the production kitchen we thought we could never make it.” - Tim Schmid Right after graduating from business school in 2017, Tim called up his two cofounders to join him, and they went live with www.earlybird.ch - a food deliver...
