Using tried and tested agile concepts have enabled software companies to increase efficiency, encourage innovation and reduce time-to-market. Unfortunately, most hardware companies have not figured out how to implement such practices, resulting in siloed information and resources wasted when large problems are discovered only at the end of a process.

In this webinar, we share simple tips to help hardware teams create an agile work environment. We’ll discuss:

  • The fundamental differences between waterfall and agile design approaches
  • Key reasons why agile is becoming more popular in the hardware space
  • Tips to apply agile principles in your design process
