Start Up: Organizational and technical aspects of a startup in a large IT company

The choice of methodology for developing new software products depends on a number of the following factors: novelty and innovation of the concept; understanding of the client what he wants; the software vendor's understanding of what the client wants. The paradox is that both are wrong from the very beginning at the stage of forming an idea. In order for the idea to be confirmed in the form of MVP and further developed in the form of a product, it is necessary to choose an approach and mechanisms aimed at quickly obtaining feedback from the client.
