Hong Kong teams who need a test a bank sponsor can stop

Standard Chartered asked Collective Campus to train selected people on its Hong Kong team in lean startup, in a half-day session, so they could champion the method inside a regulated bank. A Hong Kong team books the same kind of session when it has a live bet and a sponsor who can stop it.

We run it at your office or a room in the city, or hybrid if the sponsor is elsewhere. You bring the bet. You leave with a test you can run with what you already have, and a kill, pivot or scale call.

  • Standard Chartered used a half-day Collective Campus session so people on its Hong Kong team could apply lean startup in a regulated bank.
  • Your session uses that format on a bet you bring, in person or hybrid.
  • For innovation and product teams, plus the sponsor who can fund or stop the work.
  • You leave with a test sized to the constraint you already have.

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

Innovation units

Can a product sprint run at a Hong Kong office?

Yes. At your office or a room in the city, or hybrid when a sponsor joins from elsewhere.

Who should bring the Hong Kong bet?

Innovation and product teams with a live idea, and the sponsor who can kill it. Standard Chartered used a half day so its Hong Kong team could champion lean startup inside the bank. Bring your own bet.

Use the contact form. Tell us the bet, who must be in the room and whether you need a half day, one day or longer.

Is this a talk about startups?
