Team: Made for Silicon Valley Startup: Restore – The Social Volunteer App

Our team is a group of 4 like-minded people from Bay area who met through Venture Lab. We come from a variety of differing industries and educational backgrounds. For the first assignment we all met in person, discussed our personal stories, and set up our expectations for this class. We decided to use Google Docs to collaboratively create 17 possible startup ideas. After we all reviewed each idea offline and commented in the Google docs, we “virtually” met using Google+’s Hangout feature to clarify each idea and shortlist just 3 ideas. Again, we met virtually using Google Hangout to discuss these ideas as a group. We then shortlisted our top two ideas to pursue and assigned the owners to create a Business Model Canvas. After further review based on the implementation feasibility, class duration, and time commitment, we decided to proceed with a great non-profit idea… RESTORE, The Social Volunteer App. With changing our communities in mind, we collaboratively created the latest Business Model Canvas, Customer Discovery Questions, and Low-Fidelity Mockup/Prototype. We hope this looks like something you would use!
