The Lab program is our little hatchery where we share with you all of the tried and tested ways to start your business – from the ground up right through until you launch into the bright world.
This includes equipping you with the skills that you need to ensure that you have covered the Why, Idea, Testing, MVP and Launch – so that you are starting your new business with your absolute best foot forward. To do this our programs delve into your Business Why (your USP or Value Proposition), Products, your Sales Process and Design, Branding, Finance, Legals and we even help put you in touch with people to get your prototypes built (no matter whether they are digital or physical).
