“Apply Lean Thinking
to Innovation Process”
#SrijanWW | @srijan
The goal of the startup is to figure out the right thing - the thing customers want and will pay for - as quickly as possible.
● Inspired by “Lean Thinking”○ Just in time○ Measure driven○ Speed up development cycles
● If you make something that nobody wants, doesn’t matter if you make it on time or budget.● Difficulty of a startup/innovation comes from the inherent uncertainty. They don’t know their
customers or the product they want to build.● Lean startup is a methodology/best practises that help startups to move in right direction quickly by
systematic experimentation.

A Perfect Blend?
#SrijanWW | @srijan
There is a scientific method to follow Agile Principles on the business side to validate ideas before starting the product development.
Use the Business Model Canvas to frame hypotheses
Customer Development to get out of the building to test and validate hypotheses
Agile Engineering to build the product iteratively and incrementally
Lean Startup to build products that customers want!!
