About this event
Starting a business is not a single event. It is a series of decisions made at different points in a venture’s journey. Each stage presents new questions about viability, structure, growth, and long-term sustainability. Many ventures struggle not from lack of effort, but from navigating the wrong questions at the wrong time. The E-Series provides a map.
The 8-Class Roadmap:
Sept 15 – Class 1: Charting Your Venture – Gain clarity and establish your starting baseline.
Sept 22 – Class 2: Finding Opportunities – Uncover real market needs worth solving.
Sept 29 – Class 3: Evaluating Opportunities – Validate your concept thoroughly before investing major time or money.
Oct 6 – Class 4: Commercial Pathways – Explore startup routes, licensing models, and commercial partnerships.
Oct 13 – Class 5: IP Protection – Learn the essentials of intellectual property strategy.
Oct 20 – Class 6: Planning for Success – Build a clear, actionable execution plan.
Oct 27 – Class 7: Legal + Entity Setup – Structure and protect your venture with confidence.
Nov 3 – Class 8: Funding Your Startup – Demystify capital paths, investor expectations, and funding options.
While each class delivers immense standalone value, participants are highly encouraged to attend all 8 sessions. Taking the full series ensures you get the complete end-to-end framework, preventing costly blind spots as your venture grows.
