Details
Building on the core frameworks of the speaker’s newly released book, this high-energy, 45-minute interactive workshop moves attendees from passive listening to active execution. Participants will break out into competitive teams to rapidly build a hardware business concept from scratch, navigating the critical steps required to move a physical product securely through the earliest Technology Readiness Levels. Teams will pressure-test their unit economics, map out their manufacturing viability, and define their target market under tight constraints. The session culminates in a fast-paced pitch competition where groups present to a business panel, voting on who built the most viable, market-ready hardware venture.
