In its place, MRT announces FastTrack, its practitioner-based research and knowledge exchange which offers competitive insight into leading and emerging NPD practices.  Members have ongoing access to hundreds of downloadable case studies, interviews, MRT conference presentations, and downloadable audio - all categorized, easy to search, and easy to share. Key topics include Speed, Open Innovation/technology scouting, co-development, lean NPD, developing products in China and India, and more.  FastTrack members are also invited to participate in peer audiosessions and special networking opportunities.

While PDBPR is no longer published as a paper-based monthly newsletter, FastTrack offers similar content, plus relevant links and opportunities for Q&A with leading practitioners and experts. David Vermette, (Editor-in-Chief of PDBPR) is editor-in-chief, leading a team of experienced researchers.
