        Develop: Bring a user-centric mindset to app and game product development and leverage best-in-class technology to set your app up for long-term success

        Launch: Uncover strategies to win the launch, set up monetization models, and maximize Google's tools for data to achieve measurable growth

        Scale: Knowledge of opening your app to the world by leveraging market and platform diversification strategies.
