Startup Course 01 | Customer Driven Innovation {Red Wing Virtual Edition}
Startup Course 01 | Customer Driven Innovation - Module 101: Opportunity Identification--Virtual
Brought to you by Red Wing Ignite, E1 Ecosystem Builders, Great North Labs, ILT Studios, and DEED
Course Name: Startup Course 01 | Customer Driven Innovation - Module 101: Opportunity Identification
Course Description: Learn and practice the processes and techniques to define and refine an idea’s core problem, solution, customer, and the potential opportunities surrounding that idea.
Most good ideas do not come fully formed. Even the best ideas need to be iterated, explored, and refined before they have a chance at becoming great business ideas.
What most people don't tell you is that there is a process that can be taught and practiced to sharpen an idea--taking it from good, to better, and then to great.
We are looking for people that want to gain a fresh perspective and expand their innovation skills. At our opportunity identification workshop, we will teach you customer-driven innovation methods and help you to push your bold ideas through an interactive class experience. You will learn and practice the processes and techniques to define an idea’s core problem, solution, customer, iterate, and then refine potential opportunities surrounding that idea.
With the completion of this workshop:
You will be able to assess any startup idea
You will have an idea pitch that you can present to investors and other interested parties
You will have access to more education, funding opportunities and connections to fellow entrepreneurs and mentors
So, bring your good ideas, your bad ideas, and your half-baked ideas, even if they are quarter-baked. That is all you need.
