Kablooe’s D3 Process® – Design Driven Development®
Fred will speak to Kablooe’s D3 Process®, its Design Driven Development® approach to product development, and how Kablooe incorporates it at each stage, from early-stage “needs finding” and the divergent ideation that leads to a convergence of concepts to solve the problems identified. Risk analysis and design for manufacturing are threaded throughout, leading to and including (for medical devices) compliance with FDA regulations and other commercialization readiness, along with how Human Factors Engineering plays a critical role from inception through post-market surveillance.
This will be a very special night for our inventors to see how the “pros” approach problem solving, with the result being market-viable solutions.
