Many people starts a business without an end in mind, only to find out that the business is not profitable or does not have any scalability after investing significant time and money in their venture. Although there is no way to guarantee the success of a business, the lean startup methodology strips away the complexity of a traditional business plan and enhances the probability of success by using the “Build and Test Fast” principle. However, having a good business model alone is just one part of the equation in the competitive global economy of the 21st century. Entrepreneurs are also expected to pitch their ideas on a daily basis to all stakeholders (employees, investors, customers, suppliers etc) and navigate through a complex fundraising process to ensure survivability and scalability of the company. This course aims to equip all aspiring entrepreneurs with the skillsets to accomplish their goal of building a successful business venture.
