​Colosseum: Market Validation

​Validate your idea before you spend four weeks building it.

​A strong hackathon project starts with a problem people actually care about. This workshop will help Colosseum builders turn an idea into a clear customer hypothesis, test it with real users, and gather evidence that can guide what they build.

​You will learn practical market validation techniques designed for fast-moving teams, from identifying your target user and defining the problem to running interviews, testing demand, and using early feedback to shape your product.

​What you’ll learn

• ​How to identify and define your target market

• ​How to separate a real user problem from an interesting idea

• ​How to conduct effective customer discovery interviews

• ​How to test demand before building the full product

• ​How to create and test a clear value proposition

• ​How to turn user feedback into product decisions

• ​How to validate your Colosseum idea quickly and systematically

​What you’ll leave with

​A clearer target user, validated problem hypothesis, value proposition, and plan for testing demand so your team can build with stronger evidence.

​Who should join?

​Colosseum founders, builders, product teams, designers, and developers who are still shaping their idea or want stronger evidence that their project solves a meaningful problem.

​Bring your idea, even if it is still rough. You will have a framework to pressure-test it and leave with concrete next steps.

​Build something people want. Then build it for Colosseum.
