Build a lab and lease it
Other day i was discussing this point of 'Usability labs' in india. There were a lot of mails floating around asking for renting a usability lab in india and using it for testing purposes. There are a handful of labs right now and they arent being used to its full capacity and not every company wants to rent it out too. My company has a great usability lab but they would never rent it out for others to use.
So the best idea for now would be
- Build a nice lab. Try to get a venture capitalist for this
- Rent it out or lease it out.
- Get the best equipments
- Get a lab manager who can take care of the lab, equipments as well as the test environments
- Be creative and try to use the lab round the year
Over a period of time
- Open a couple more labs in other parts of upcoming cities
