Lean Startup Short Course

Hey Everyone,

Our friends at Collective Campus are organising a Lean Startup Short Course starting this Tuesday.

They have a special weekend deal for Startup Victoria's community that will end this weekend. Check out more info below:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Build your startup the right way with the Lean Startup process. Be exposed to real case studies, activities, tools, and guest speakers to give you the best chance of success. Because let's face it, building a startup is one of the hardest things you can do.

Startup Vic Members can pay as low as $595 (save $150) if they sign up to the course this weekend only. Very limited spots left in the class. 
Why The Lean Startup Changes Everything

According to Stanford professor, serial entrepreneur and father of the lean startup movement, Steve Blank, launching a new startup or initiative within a large corporation—has always been a hit-or-miss proposition. You write a business plan, pitch it to investors, assemble a team, introduce a product, and start selling as hard as you can. And somewhere in this sequence of events, you’ll probably suffer a fatal setback.

The odds are not with you: As new research by Harvard Business School’s Shikhar Ghosh shows, 75% of all start-ups fail.

However, The Lean Startup, 2011's book by Eric Ries, has popularised the lean startup methodology which advocates experimentation over elaborate planning, customer feedback over intuition, and iterative design over traditional 'big bang' design and development up front. Today, both start-ups and large companies are embracing concepts such as 'minimum viable products' and rapid prototyping to radically improve the likelihood of finding product market fit, without wasting millions of dollars or several years looking for it.

About this Course

In this short course, running 2 nights a week for 4 weeks, you will you receive an overview of the entire lean startup process and supporting tools. The course will be backed by real world case studies as well as in-class and take home activities. You will also be asked to come with an idea and you will leave with a working prototype and validated learnings, essentially saving you lots of time and money in the process and improving your chances of success.

Who Should Take This Workshop?

This workshop is developed for any professional with an interest in The Lean Startup. This includes startup founders and team members (this includes corporate startups and new ventures), project managers, designers, developers and marketers.

Professionals interested in making themselves more attractive and getting involved in more internal innovation projects can only benefit from taking this workshop.
