This course is based on a series of webinar trainings that Startup Commons has done with various startup ecosystem operators.

Every single module of Growth Academy is designed to be independent from the others and to be consumed alone.

Training target:

1. To understand the importance of validation, the methods that can be used, and how to build the right KPI’s.

2. What is the change in mindset that needs to happen between the previous stage and this phase?

3. Understanding the benefit of MVP thinking, prioritization framework and tools that can be used for these.

4. While the focus here is on validating the product/service, this is also part of validating the team’s commitments.

5. Finding enough customers to be able to validate is enough.

6. Focus on passing through this phase fast.

7. Understanding the funding opportunities before and after launch.
