How to Start a Startup
Building a startup is exciting, but the early decisions you make can save months (and money) later. This event is a practical, founder-focused session designed to help you start with clarity, validate the right problems, and set up strong fundamentals before you scale.
You’ll hear short, honest stories from 3–4 founders who are currently building their own businesses. They’ll share what they did right, what they wish they knew earlier, and the real steps they took to go from idea to execution.
What we’ll cover
Choosing the right problem and validating demand early
Defining your ideal customer and sharpening your value proposition
MVP thinking: what to build first (and what to skip)
Early go-to-market basics: traction, pricing, distribution
Team, roles, and founder alignment from day one
Common early-stage mistakes and how to avoid them
Who should attend
Aspiring founders, early-stage startup teams, students, makers, freelancers exploring a business idea, and anyone curious about entrepreneurship.
Format
Foundations talk + founder lightning shares + interactive Q&A and networking.
