Airdrie Entrepreneur Common has partnered with Platform Calgary to deliver their successful Discover program. Discover supports entrepreneurs to build a viable business solution people love and are willing to pay for. Customer discovery is an essential first (and ongoing) step in creating a new product, service or business.
Over four sessions, you will test your business idea by determining who your customers are, how big and compelling their problems are, whether it’s worth the time and money to build the business and to craft a series of tests so you know what to build, when to build it and why it matters to customers.
Looking for more help with your business idea? A great next step is our SMARTstart entrepreneurial training program.
Dates
The Discover program takes place over four sessions April 20 – June 1, 2023. Each session takes place from 6:30 – 8:30 pm.
