The goal | The course enables students of software engineering, electrical engineering and computer science to identify market needs, develop creativity and generate innovative ideas, develop minimum viable products (MVP), form startup teams and effectively manage the development of a technology company. The focus is on the application of modern methodologies, from idea to implementation. | |||
The outcome | Students will be able to: independently identify market opportunities and generate viable business ideas in the field of software; apply modern methods for product development and idea validation with real users; create a presentation, MVP and design a company scaling strategy at an early stage; work in teams, using collaborative tools and methodologies. | |||
Contents | ||||
Contents of lectures | Basic terminology, examples and types of startups. Lean Startup and Customer Discovery-basics and tools. Problem-solution alignment. MVP design: methods and tools. Agile and Lean product development. Sources of financing. Legal framework of startups and intellectual property protection. Digital marketing and Growth Hacking strategies. Methodologies for measuring success. | |||
Contents of exercises | Students will work in teams to develop an innovative startup idea through the following stages: defining the problem, interviewing users, creating an MVP using collaboration tools, and making a presentation for investors.
