The Testing Ground runs a 20-day programme that will help you make sure your idea is worth abandoning everything else for. It is hands-on, fast-paced, and fully focused on reaching customers to validate your idea. You’re feeling that excitement and passion of making lots of money because of the startup idea you just thought of. But in truth, customers don’t care that you’ve got a new idea – they only care if your idea is actually a solution to a problem they face. And it’s got to be an outstanding solution! With our programme, you will find out if you’ve found a problem worth solving even before you commit yourself to working on a solution. You will test your idea with customers and even get them to pay you before you build the actual product! The process we are using is known as the Lean Startup Methodology as conceptualised by Eric Ries and it has been put into action for hundreds of successful start-ups in America and other countries. And now we are going to fast track you through it towards your own startup in Singapore.
