WORKSHOP: LEAN CANVAS

Agenda
The Problem
The Problem
Many startups begin with an idea for a product that they think people want. They spend months, perfecting that product without ever showing the product, even in a very rudimentary form, to the prospective customer. When they fail to reach broad uptake from customers, it is often because they never spoke to prospective customers and determined whether or not the product was interesting. When customers ultimately communicate, through their indifference, that they don't care about the idea, the startup fails.

Lean Startup
“If startups invest their time into building products or services step by step to meet
the needs of early customers, they can reduce the market risks and sidestep the need for large amounts of initial project funding and expensive product launches
and failures.”
Lean Startup
