All of these topic areas will rely on a build-measure-learn approach to make sure you find effective solutions quickly and inexpensively. \nLean Startup is a mindset and a methodology that is used across industries\, sectors\, and professions to solve problems and understand what your customers need most. We welcome people from all backgrounds and encourage an open and engaged mindset! \nCost: \nThanks to the Hurt Hub’s partnerships and with the support of Amplify Davidson\, this course is free to particpants. \nCourse Schedule: \nWednesday Evenings\, September 23 – November 11 | 7 Weeks\, 6:45–8:15 pm.
