In the business world, making ideas into real products and creating attractive brands is a big challenge. The key to this success is a creative process that people and businesses use to solve ongoing problems that consumers have. This process involves product design team that design products doing thorough research, finding facts, and testing and checking ideas many times to create new and lasting solutions that fit what consumers need.
But how does this creative process actually work? It starts with coming up with ideas and developing concepts, which are like the building blocks that spark curiosity and encourage creativity. How businesses achieve a return on investment (ROI) through the development of new products, is by focusing on both design and market strategy before design.
During the idea generation phase or Conceptualisation, innovators explore different options and carefully assess them from a technical perspective. The goal is to get rid of ideas that would be too expensive or not practical, leaving only the best idea that could lead to groundbreaking products and fit with business goals.
In conclusion, the ideation and concept development stage paves the way for prototyping and testing before a product's market launch. It's a rigorous process that requires thorough research and evaluation, using various techniques to generate and validate ideas.
