How we’ll rock the world in an hour• We’ll invent something• It will be something people want• It will be something people will pay for

• It might just change the world

1. Let’s find a problem• It really annoys me

when.....• Yes and it’s be so much

better if.....My washing

My phone/wifi

My bus

My hair/spots/feet

My sister

2. Is a problem worth solving?

• Whose life would get better if we fixed this?

• How many people are there like that?

• How would their life get better?

• Who could we persuade to give us money?

• Will they just do it once or can we make them pay again again?

• What would success look like for them (what do they expect for their money?)

Inventors! Your tools to solve the problem

How will we test our invention?

Can we combine testing with selling & persuading?

How good is good enough? (Our minimum viable product!)

Shall we start a company??
