Exclusive Event

Event Overview

Product pilots are often seen as lightweight proofs, but top teams use them to test value and earn trust before scale. In this session, Saachi Khurana (VP of Product, JPMorgan) shares how to decide not just if something works, but whether it should scale.

  • 01

    The Power of the Pilot

    Why pilots matter: learn fast, build evidence, earn trust, and make the scale decision with confidence.

  • 02

    Pilot vs PoC vs MVP

    How to pick the right approach, set expectations, and avoid “pilot theater” by being clear on the question you’re answering.

  • 03

    Designing Pilots That Graduate

    A practical 5-step playbook (define the why, set boundaries, design the experiment, build the feedback loop, plan graduation) plus execution lessons like preventing scope creep and balancing data with qualitative feedback.
