How to Validate Your Problem Before You Build
You have an idea. You're excited about it. But how do you know if it's a problem people will actually pay to solve?
Most founders skip this step and build first—only to realise months later that no one wants what they've built. This session will save you from that.
Join us for a masterclass on problem validation with Kosen Kenta, Principal at Antler, covering:
How to know if you're solving a real problem vs. a made-up one
The customer discovery process: asking the right questions to the right people
Separating what people say they want from what they'll actually pay for
Red flags that your problem isn't worth solving
When you have enough validation to start building
This session is for founders at the idea stage or in early customer discovery—before you've committed significant time or resources to building. It's practical, interactive, and designed to help you validate faster and with more confidence.
When: February 26th, 4:00 PM - 5:00 PM WAT / 6:00 PM - 7:00 PM EAT
Where: Virtual (Google Meet link sent upon registration)
Who should attend: Pre-product founders, aspiring entrepreneurs, and anyone validating a new idea
The session will be recorded and shared with all registrants. This is the second session of the Antler Africa Academy—our effort to build the most valuable resource hub for African founders.
