Bring shaped pitches
Pitches should explain the problem, appetite, rough solution, and risks. This lets the group compare opportunities without reopening every implementation detail.
Make trade-offs explicit
The table considers what not to do as seriously as what to do. A limited number of teams means each bet has an opportunity cost.
Hand off clear intent
Once selected, a team receives a bounded project and autonomy to build it. Track its scopes in Hillchart to keep the bet’s progress visible.
