A significant portion of the training was dedicated to building robust business models. Participants learned to define their project’s unique value proposition and map out revenue streams to ensure profitability and sustainable growth from the outset.
Applying Lean Startup and Smart Marketing
Shifting from theory to practice, the program heavily emphasized the “Lean Startup” methodology. This hands-on approach taught participants how to conduct initial product tests, determine fair pricing, and accurately identify their target audience without committing significant resources.
