It depends on the context)

If you already have a main direction then experiments are inevitable in the process. I can judge by IT developments. I often use 1xbet app India now. It was a small app 5 years ago. However, these guys do not stop and constantly try to add new functionality. What is in demand remains in the main release.That's how business is done.
Experimentation always show the truth ;)
Experiments are part of the strategy :)
Why create a false dichotomy? Strategy tells you where to experiment.
Experimentation is key initially, but having a solid strategy is crucial for long-term success. Test, learn, refine your approach, then formulate a winning strategy based on those learnings ;)

Ideally, you need both (start with a solid strategy and continuously experiment to refine and improve your approach based on real-world data)
Both are important! Experiments help validate or disprove assumptions in your strategy. But experiments without an overarching strategy can lead you off track. The key is to let your strategy guide what you experiment on, then use learnings to continually refine your strategy. It's an iterative loop.
Strategy says, 'I have a plan,' and experimentation replies, 'Hold my drink.' Without experiments, strategy is just guessing, and without strategy, experiments are just chaos. The key? Knowing when to stop experimenting before your 'plan' turns into wild guesses held together by caffeine and hope.
Strategy might edge out because after experimenting it's essential to have a game plan to maximize your impact.
I believe it's a balance of both. While strategy provides a roadmap, experimentation allows for course correction and innovation
