“Stage-Gate Inc.’s Portfolio
Management for New Products seminar is by far one of the most professionally
run and useful seminars I have attended in my 20 years with DuPont. Within days
of returning to the office I was putting to use the tools and teachings that
were covered in the session. Based on my very positive impressions of their approach
to New Product Development best practices, I am looking forward to participating
in additional Stage-Gate® seminars and will recommend that others in our
organization do so as well.”
