Startup from [0] to [1] - How to get your startup off the ground

Join us for an insightful event on how to get your startup idea off the ground and turn it into a successful project!

In this workshop, we will share case studies of several famous startups, a few of which that started from an idea on a Startup Weekend edition. From examples like Uber, Airbnb, Blablacar, Zapier, Uniplaces, and Coursera, we will understand how to select and solve a problem significant enough to create a "billion-dollar company".

At the end of this workshop, participants will have a clear understanding of the full Entrepreneurial Journey. Attendees will learn:

• How to validate an idea and solution to check if this is a business worth pursuing
• How to build the first version of the product (“MVP” - Minimum Viable Product) without investment or programming knowledge
• How to get the first customers!

This workshop is part of a series of free educational events promoted by the 351 Portuguese Startup Association in collaboration with the Techstars Startup Weekends team in Portugal.
