Does the World Need Your Cool Idea?

Building a product that the world wants is the cornerstone of building a great company, which means problem validation is a crucial step in defining the solution you are developing. Join Alicia Oddi, Managing Director of Rev1 Ventures, for this interactive event.

Great products start with a deep understanding of a high-value market problem, the impact of that problem, and a knowledge of who will be the most willing to pay for a solution. During this session, you will develop educated assumptions upon which to base your validation surveys.

What You’ll Learn:

• Define the problem and solution.

• Identify the user, buyer, and supplier of the solution.

• Build a survey that asks the right questions of the right audience.
