In the initial stages of product development, the CPO is heavily involved in market research. By gaining a deep understanding of the target audience, the CPO can guide the product team in creating solutions that resonate with customers and address their pain points.

This involves making strategic decisions based on market demands, technological capabilities, and resource constraints. The CPO must foster a culture of creativity and exploration within the product team, encouraging them to think beyond the conventional and explore new ideas and technologies.
