This session introduces you to the Lean Canvas, a tool that helps you assess whether your idea could become a viable business. You’ll explore your potential market, consider your competitive advantage, and gain a better understanding of how all the parts of a business fit together. No business experience needed, just bring your ideas and a willingness to explore
