Building a successful digital product requires more than just a great idea and the latest technology. A well-crafted strategy is essential for navigating the market. Understanding the competition and connecting with potential customers to establish market positioning are crucial steps in crafting the strategy.

The DPS course is a practice-oriented course designed for product professionals and digital strategists looking to enhance their expertise in successful strategy formulation and execution.

Over four weeks, participants will learn to formulate a compelling product vision based on market research and develop a Go-To-Market strategy that drives customer adoption and loyalty.
