About the PDP Article
This article was originally published on Synthx.com in 1998 to answer common questions about the processes, because the path from idea to a final product and happy customers is not as easy or direct as it often sounds.
Since the first launch, the article has had 4 major revisions and is published in 3 languages. It is now used in both education and training materials for entrepreneurs, and in business and scholastic settings around the globe. If you are thinking about developing a product, or taking an idea from first concept to market, this article is worth reading.
Inventors Lab

Over the years, we have worked with a lot of inventions, and noted several things that help people avoid mistakes on the path to success in launching new products. The Inventors Lab is web feature to discuss inventions, to discuss product based ventures, and to help inventors (and other folks in the new products world) navigate obstacles.

– Visit the Lab

In many ways, you can say we have “Been There, Done That” and have a desire to share what we have learned. Come in to the lab and see.
The Engineers Perspective

The Synthesis blog is affectionately called The Engineers Perspective. It is a little different than a normal blog, because here you will find a collection of articles on a variety of subjects, though mostly engineering and business related. We invite you to come in, enjoy a little history, and grab some engineering perspective.
