What you'll learn

You wouldn't climb a mountain without planning, so why would you start an MVP without doing the same?

It's time to rethink what an MVP is and can do for you.

Billy will share common mistakes people make when it comes to design, development, and testing ideas with customers.

Themes

  • What is a minimum viable product?
  • How much design or code is enough for an MVP product?
  • What types of MVPs can you create, and when do they make sense?

Billy Sweetman shows you how to create a strategy to leverage MVPs in different parts of the product journey.

He will share MVP app examples that were enough to make a difference for many businesses throughout history, like the Airbnb MVP, to inspire MVP design thinking.

He'll share options for you to build a functional MVP without code to start testing with customers and validating product concepts.
