From Science to Product

At LifeQ we like to say that we are busy building an airplane, while we are already flying it, after having thrown it off a cliff. We started with a great vision and world-changing science, and had to learn how to match this to real world needs. We had to figure out our product. We started to create a product focused culture. In this talk Herman will talk about that product discovery journey, and share lessons learned, both good and bad. It will be more extreme than a rollercoaster ride.

About Herman

Herman is the Head of Product at HealthQ Technologies, a South African startup, now part of LifeQ Inc, based from Atlanta, Georgia. LifeQ is pioneered by a uniquely multi-disciplinary team led by computational systems biologists. They have figured out how to continuously track your physiology and, using bio-mathematical models, translate this into information that has the potential to fundamentally improve your and, in time, all human health. Herman helps this team to package their science into concrete and meaningful products. Before HealthQ he founded Polymorph Systems, from where he helped numerous clients to roll out successful software products.
