Abstract: “So What, Who Cares, Why You, Why Now, and Why Me?” – A 5 question framework to help you think, conceptualise, develop, assess and strengthen a venture concept. Designed to help you escape the “nodding head” syndrome and instead develop relationships and commercial opportunities to help bring your venture from a vision into a viable thriving enterprise.

This will be a facilitated workshop helping you to develop and refine a clear, compelling & credible case for clients, investors or strategic partners to get “on board” with your venture concept.

If you have an idea come along with it but its ok to come along without one as we will show you the secret to creating disruptive & gamechanging ideas ( in just 10 mins).

The workshop will last 2 hours and you will leave with a very useful toolkit of techniques to help you turn an idea into winning enterprise. Don’t come if you expect spreadsheets, P&L’s, term sheets. Do come if you want to learn some guerrilla tactics to help you build the next big thing.
