​Welcome to the Lean Canvas Workshop

​​where we’ll explore a structured approach to problem-solving and Idea Validation in product development. You’ll learn how to break down business ideas, identify key assumptions, and validate them effectively using the Lean Canvas framework.

​​Through interactive exercises and discussions, you’ll gain hands-on experience in applying Lean Canvas to real-world challenges. By the end of the session, you’ll be equipped with practical tools to refine your ideas and drive better product decisions.

​Every last Saturday of the month (except Dec/Jan), people from diverse disciplines meet to networth through a common goal, to learn, get inspired and connect with interesting people.

​The idea is to work on a common practise, that would benefit our community.

​A Product goes through multiple stages.

​One of the critical and important step is to validate your business/product idea.

​This month, Varun Jain will lead this hands-on Validation workshop using Lean Canvas.
