 From my experience, early-stage product screening relies on a combination of financial, market, technical, and sustainability metrics. I have seen firms evaluate market potential, production costs, scalability, and alignment with strategic goals. I would recommend including environmental impact and social responsibility as key criteria, especially for green or sustainable products. Risk assessment, including regulatory and technological uncertainty, is also crucial. By applying a structured evaluation framework, companies can prioritize ideas with the highest potential return, societal benefit, and environmental compliance, ensuring resources are invested in concepts likely to succeed and create meaningful impact.
