Geoff, the most valuable outcomes from these events are (from an engineer's perspective):
- discovering how quickly a team can develop and market test a product - learning how to release (overcoming the phobia about releasing something unfinished) - getting in front of customers with an unfinished/unrefined (overcoming the phobia of talking to real potential customers) - getting in front of investors (overcoming the inertia of developing and pitching a business plan that's never finished) - letting go (applying brutal prioritisation and focus) - developing an awesome network Most of those are psychological barriers that environments like startup bus help overcome. I'd love to be there. Whether the ideas live on or not doesn't matter. Most people will take what they've learned, and the network they've joined, and apply it to their real company or idea. regards, Jeromy Evans www.linkedin.com/in/jeromyevans -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Silicon Beach Australia mailing list.
