Continuing his popular series on the realities of entrepreneurship, Robert Bismuth will deliver the talk in collaboration with the School of Management, with the aim of building closer links to the Foundry. You may remember Robert’s previous talks focused on shaping an idea into something tangible, and examining the transition from idea to company. The third talk, “So, you have a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) …”, addresses one of the most testing and pivotal stages of entrepreneurship. Having an MVP is not just about proving your product works, it is about navigating the many challenges that follow. How do you win trust with early users, manage your stakeholders, adapt to feedback that may challenge your assumptions, and decide whether to pivot or scale. His talk will cut through the myths of product launch and highlight the realities of testing, iterating, and positioning a MVP in competitive markets. For those interested in or serious about entrepreneurship, or simply looking for inspiration, it is an unmissable opportunity to learn from someone who has lived the process end-to-end.
