From Idea to MVP: How Founders Test and Build Fast
Thu, Jan 15 · 8:00 PM GMT+2 Beirut time
Virtual
About this event
You have an idea. But is it worth building? This workshop is run by founders who've built multiple MVPs — some that failed fast, some that became real businesses. They'll show you exactly how to test your idea before wasting months building the wrong thing. No theory. Just the frameworks, tools, and mindset that actually work. What You'll Learn:
How to validate an idea in 48 hours (before writing any code)
The "mom test" — getting honest feedback that matters
Landing page + waitlist strategy that proves demand
Building an MVP in days, not months
When to pivot vs when to push through
Tools we actually use: Carrd, Tally, Notion, Figma, Cursor
What We'll Cover:
Real examples from MVPs we built (including the failures)
Live teardown of attendee ideas (bring yours)
The minimum you need to launch
Getting your first 10 users
Avoiding the "build trap" most first-time founders fall into
Who This Is For:
First-time founders with an idea stuck in their head
People who've been "thinking about starting something" for months
Builders who want to move faster and waste less time
Anyone tired of tutorials and ready for real talk
This Is NOT For:
People looking for a magic formula
Anyone not willing to put in the work after the workshop
