The Pros from Dover

Jack of all spades. Master of none. Sometimes an enterprise — whether a startup or a multinational — can’t or shouldn’t try to do everything. Product design for example.

If a company’s forte is ... say ... farm equipment, it ought think twice before getting into the baby products market, for example.

That’s where an industrial design firm comes in.

Listen to the team from Failure - The Podcast as they explore what a design firm can (and can’t) do to bring a company’s product dreams to reality.
