Webinar – MVE to MVP: No-code options for testing your startup product idea with BLDR
August 12, 2020 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm
Founders with big ideas and no coding skills can create working tech products using tools like Airtable, Glide, and Stacker, but still fall victim to many avoidable pitfalls. Developing a minimum viable product (MVP) is one of the most misunderstood steps in the startup process, and the numerous “no-code” options to build custom software has made it more complicated. Even if you aren’t building a tech-based company, no code options are a great way for existing businesses to add web-based product or service offerings.
In this webinar, we’ll talk about the difference between MVEs (minimum viable experiments) and MVPs, the pros and cons of various no-code platforms, and when to bring strategists and developers into the process.
