Business as a Process

November 16, 2021 @ 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm

Free

Launching a company may seem like an impossible task. Where do you start? How do you define the value you’re bringing to potential customers? What decisions will you have to make, and how do you make them if you’re not sure you have all of the information you need?

Join us as Founder and Managing Director of ecosVC Judy Giordan demystifies the process of building as business. Following the scientific method, Judy’s process uses experiments and clearly defines steps to help ensure that you set your business up for success from the very beginning.
