What's the process involved in turning an innovative concept into a designed and manufactured product? And just how does anyone go about finding a manufacturer in the Far East?

In this online webinar, award-winning product designer and entrepreneur Morag Hutcheon (right) of Quadro Design Associates outlines the steps to producing a well designed, marketable product.

Knowing the process and avoiding the pitfalls saves costly mistakes in the design process, not to mention ensuring that your product will be manufactured cost-effectively and sell profitably.

This is a re-run of the popular live presentation Morag made at the She's Ingenious! September 09 meeting.
