The Startups Engine

The Startup Engine workshop provides a framework, model and process that captures the core concepts needed to achieve problem-solution fit and product-market fit.

We'll look at the following elements in the Startup Engine approach:

• Engine design - The Core Enterprise Flow Model. You will articulate how you propose to make money and the flow of products/services, including evaluating business model options
• Ignition point - The Startup FUEL (Framework for Understanding Economic Logic) Simulation. You will simulate the ignition point by defining assumptions, make a feasibility snapshot, and consider business and pricing models and break even calculations.
• Startup piston - A critical path roadmap kickstarting the startup engine. You will map markets to achieve problem-solution fit and product-market fit, and expectations to achieve a fit.

Benefits of using the Startup Engine method:

• accelerated time to market
• enhanced financial planning
• data-drive decision making
• improved testing
• improved investor pitch
• increased confidence

Drinks will follow this workshop at Clare Bar from 4:30 onwards.
