Brisbane

For Brisbane teams who need a test, not a thicker paper

Queensland organisations are practised at the investment case and later to the experiment that would change it. This sprint is for a live bet and a sponsor who can stop it, including in a resources or government setting.

We run it in person in Brisbane or hybrid. You bring the bet. You leave with the smallest test that sponsor can run, and a kill, pivot or scale call.

  • For Brisbane innovation and product teams, plus the sponsor who can stop the work.
  • Tests sized for a resources, government or regulated constraint.
  • In person in Brisbane, or hybrid if the sponsor is elsewhere.
  • You leave with evidence and a decision.

The problem

Big bets. Long roadmaps. No idea if it'll work.

Betting blind

Months of build committed before a single customer has weighed in.

Sunk-cost creep

Nobody wants to kill the project everyone's already spent on.

Feedback too late

You only find out it missed once it's shipped, the most expensive time to learn.

What you'll walk away with

By the end of the sprint, your team will have

  • Your riskiest assumptions surfaced and ranked
  • An MVP or prototype built to test the biggest one
  • Real signal from real customers, not internal opinion
  • A clear go / pivot / kill decision, backed by evidence
  • An experiment backlog and a Build-Measure-Learn cadence to keep running

What we cover

The shape of the sprint

  1. 01

    Map the assumptions

    Everything that has to be true for the idea to work.

  2. 02

    Find the riskiest

    Rank by impact × uncertainty, test the one that could sink you first.

  3. 03

    Design the test

    The smallest experiment that gives a real answer.

  4. 04

    Build the minimum

    Just enough to learn, nothing more.

  5. 05

    Run it & decide

    Get it in front of customers, read the signal, make the call.

Who it's for

Who should be in the room

Product teams

Squads with a big feature or bet they haven't validated.

Founders & intrapreneurs

Anyone about to sink real money into an unproven idea.

Innovation units

Teams who need to show evidence, not just activity.

Questions about running this in Brisbane

Can a resources or government team in Brisbane run a real test?

Yes, if the test is small enough to learn without betting the asset, the service or the licence. Bring the sponsor who can stop it.

Do we need a startup idea?

You need a live bet. The room should include the people who have to defend the test.

How do we book a Brisbane product sprint?

Use the contact form. Name the bet, who must be in Brisbane and whether it is one day or longer.

Will this replace the business case?

It should make the case shorter and later. You leave with a kill, pivot or scale call.
