SCORE Validate Your Business Idea with AI Before You Launch

Event description

Most founders know their idea well. They can describe the product, the customer, and the vision, but they can't name the one assumption that, if wrong, breaks the entire model. That gap is where ideas die. This session is built around the Lean Canvas: what it is, why stakeholder mapping surfaces risks most founders miss, and how to distinguish a validated business model from a well-dressed guess. You'll watch AI produce three connected deliverables live: a Founder Brief, a complete Stakeholder Map with pain intensity rankings, and a Lean Canvas, demonstrated with a real business case. Leave with a three-prompt toolkit ready to run on your own idea. No Lean Canvas background or technical expertise required. You'll need an AI account (Claude or ChatGPT), your idea, and 90 minutes to know what you need to test before you launch your business.
