Sponsor vs product owner
- Both the Sponsor and product owner represent the customer's interests, but the owner is usually closer to the developers than the Sponsor. First, the owner has to be available to the developers all the time; this may or may not be true to the Sponsor. Secondly, the owner leads the development of the backlog; the Sponsor usually just approves the product and project scopes.
