Overview

Lean Startup is a methodology that applies Lean principles to the development of new business ideas, focusing on rapid experimentation and validated learning. It emphasises the importance of building a minimum viable product (MVP) to test hypotheses about customer needs and market viability with minimal risk and investment. This approach allows teams to gather real-time feedback, enabling them to pivot or persevere based on empirical evidence rather than assumptions.

By fostering a culture of experimentation, Lean Startup empowers organisations to innovate continuously and respond swiftly to changing market conditions. It encourages cross-functional collaboration, ensuring that insights from various stakeholders inform product development. This iterative process not only accelerates time-to-market but also enhances the likelihood of delivering products that genuinely meet customer demands.

Lean Startup is distinct from Agile methodologies, which focus on iterative development and customer collaboration, by placing a stronger emphasis on the validation of business models and market fit. Its systemic nature supports long-term sustainability, as it integrates learning into the organisational fabric, promoting resilience and adaptability in an ever-evolving landscape. This enables teams to deliver value predictably, ensuring that resources are allocated effectively and strategically aligned with customer needs and organisational goals.
