How to Test Your Business Idea

This is a FREE workshop  sponsored by DECD and space is limited.  Preregistration required

Got a business idea? Wondering how to test it? Thinking of starting a business but not sure if your idea has legs?  This is the workshop for you!

The objective of this workshop is to help each workshop participant begin to lay out the parameters of a sustainable and, ideally, scalable business.

Participants are encouraged to use this workshop as a focus group, to bring their ideas for their businesses to peers in the workshop in order to test and strengthen them.

The workshop systematically helps you identify, answer and align the three most important questions that your idea will face:

• What problem are you solving?
• What is your Minimum Viable Product?
• What is your Value Proposition?
