Create a Product

The best startups solve a customer problem with a solution that surprises and delights. Startup founders “ideate” to develop tens or hundreds of ideas, then they test the most promising ideas with their potential customers.

In this two hour workshop, you’ll learn the techniques founders use to boost their creativity, borrow great ideas from successful startups, come up with your own product or feature ideas, and translate a sketch into a startup concept.

"Creativity is an infinite resource. The more you spend, the more you have." -- Tim Ferriss
