Ehsan's Growth Commentary

The data from 296 companies shows Open Source Growth generates 31% of pipeline for HealthTech companies at Public. But only when implemented with discipline. Scale what works, kill what does not. No emotional attachment to channels.

HealthTech companies at Public should allocate 15-25% of growth budget to Open Source Growth. Track weekly, evaluate monthly, pivot quarterly. The winning rhythm is 2-week sprints with clear hypotheses.
