Venture Labs is hosting an information session on December 18th for entrepreneurs who are interested in learning more or joining our new program.

Market Validation Training (MVT) is for entrepreneurs who are working to gain customer traction and need a proven start-up approach and guidance on building their business. This program will focus on your business strategy to help take your venture to the next stage, following a curriculum developed based on innovation best practices. You will work with experienced entrepreneurs and mentors during and in-between the workshops. By the end of the program you’ll have a Business Model Canvas that summarizes your business strategy, a one page Go To Market Plan, have an elevator pitch for investors, and a pro forma view of your expected revenues and costs.
