Understand Your Customers

Startups that succeed make sure they’re building something that people really want. The best way to do this is to talk to customers!

In this two hour workshop, you’ll practise conversations that help you learn about what your customers need, and learn how to spot the trends that tell you when you’re onto something.

"Anyone can have a solution but if no one cares about it, unfortunately, you are not going to have a very big company." - Melanie Perkins, CEO & Co-Founder, Canva
