Workshop: Bringing Ideas to Life
Event description
Are you an early stage start-up or do you have a new idea that you would like to test? This new type of event, which was successfully trialled in the Spark Festival, is a fun and effective way to get feedback on your idea.
We, IdeaSpies and ReadyFundGo are running this event to help you refine your elevator pitch and see if crowdfunding will work to get your idea off the ground.
What to Bring
Your phone or iPad
During the Event
During the event our speakers will use IdeaSpies to temporarily post your idea online with an image and an elevator pitch so others in the group can quickly understand it and offer feedback. They will run you through idea generation, including through the lean start-up methodology, elevator pitches and how crowdfunding can be used to help get your idea off the ground.
Numbers are limited, so please RSVP below if you would like to join.
