Beer and Business design - From ideas to business concepts, March 28th 2018 @ Maria 01, Helsinki
Are you on your way to be a successful startup team? Do you know how to crystallize your business concept to yourself and to your investors? Join our workshop to learn how to engage your whole team in taking your idea to a crystal clear business concept! The event is free of charge.
From ideas to business concepts – challenge and cocreate
Are you working hard on your business idea? We will help you transform your idea into a concrete concept with a business model and a prototype. Join our workshop to learn and experience, how you can work together with peers and customers. How can your peers help you challenge and develop your business idea, and how can you help them? We will take you through a simple way of working together and taking structured steps on your journey from an idea to a business concept.
Why do you need a concept, a prototype and a business model?
Ideas are great, but they’re often not very concrete. Also, having one idea is one thing, having 17 is another. Developing a concept from your bucket of ideas takes you much further on the road to concrete business. And a prototype makes your concept real. A business model, on the other hand, describes something you can manage and develop. So, the trio makes up a concrete business concept that you can manage and develop.
Learn to work as a fully engaged team and let others challenge you
Freedom is important, but so is structure. And getting from an idea to a concrete concept with a business model is a tedious job that is easy to skip when you’re busy developing ideas with complete freedom. Structure and engaging your team to a common target bring results from that freedom. With a good structure you will also know how to let others challenge you and your ideas.
Who should participate?
Startup teams and entrepreneurs, who want to work as a fully engaged team and crystallise their business concept for themselves and for investors.
Corporations, who want to bring structure and speed to their startup operations.
