This book is aimed at anyone who wants to learn more about the world of startups and discover the keys to startup success.
How can you make the most of your business idea? How can you establish it?
What are the strategies underpinning fundraising and the techniques needed to penetrate the market?
The innovative framework “The Startup Canvas”, the result of years of testing on real-life case studies, incorporates the current Business Model Canvas and Lean Canvas, while also adding the key missing elements that are fundamental in order to construct a successful startup.
The book is a step-by-step guide for those undertaking this experience for the first time, but it also tackles complex issues suited to professionals and those who already have experience in this regard, with valuable contributions from Jacopo Mele, Gianluca Comandini, Raffaele Gaito, Marco Merangola and many others.
Through the stories of those who have already made it, like Brian Pallas and Marco Trombetti, it will be clearer to you how to transform an idea into an entrepreneurial project and how to build a product that satisfies the needs of the market. The preface is by Gian Luca Comandini.
