The product development stage is a process from zero to one. This stage basically belongs to the investment stage. A large amount of capital, technology, and personnel continue to invest until the product development is successful. The product development stage is usually called the “valley of death”.

Production costs also tend to drop at this stage because the production process is more efficient.
