Market Validation Training (MVT) Program: Helping you determine if you’re ready to scale your business.

Supported by the Venture Acceleration Program with Innovate BC.

The MVT program is designed for entrepreneurs like you looking to gain customer traction and need a proven startup approach for building their business.

Here’s what you’ll gain from this program:

You will leave this program with a deep understanding of your customers, insights into what investors seek, a solid grasp of proforma fundamentals, and the key milestones to propel your business forward. Our curriculum is meticulously crafted by accomplished entrepreneurs, investors, and industry experts.

Where does the program take place?

The MVT program offers a hybrid approach. The in-person component takes place at the VentureLabs office in downtown Vancouver, while the online component happens via Zoom. We highly encourage in-person participation for the best experience possible. For those opting for the remote Zoom option, we encourage live participation to allow you to ask questions. Participants will receive recordings of each session afterward.
