Founder's Journey Workshop Series: Ideation to Action: Do You Have a Business Idea Worth Pursuing?

Description

AUGUST 13 - Ideation to Action: Do You Have a Business Idea Worth Pursuing?
Identify the “symptoms” that indicate you’re a future founder, validate your thinking, and take your first step to bring your idea to life.

Presenters:

Every successful venture begins with an idea—but not every idea becomes a successful venture.

Presented by John Duplissey, vice president of business development at Zaga Labs, and Francisco Molina, founder of Invento Design, this interactive workshop helps participants determine whether their idea has real market potential and what it takes to move from concept to execution. Participants will learn practical approaches to validating opportunities, testing assumptions, developing product concepts, exploring prototyping, and creating a proof of concept while hearing firsthand how recent founders overcame common barriers to launching their businesses.

Series Information:
