proven, Successful approach - 'It works'
I have worked with 75+ startups and entrepreneurs and have used Customer Discovery to identify and validate new markets and customer segments. It is based on a proven, successful methodology from the US National Science Foundation Innovation I-Corps program for tech startups originating from universities. I was a professor and industry mentor with Rutgers University NSF I-Corps program.
Customer Discovery is ideal because it DOES NOT involve selling.
I have benefited from the Customer Discovery method to successfully develop partnerships and collaborations with corporations and nonprofits, leading to 2x YoY revenue increases and new business development.
My clients have won competitions (Mass Challenge); raised $1M in funding (Y-Combinator) and achieved the 'holy grail' of product/market fit - essential for obtaining investor funding.
I have won numerous consulting engagements, including being written into 3 successful World Bank projects.
Now, I want to share my knowledge and expertise to develop engaging and exciting partnerships, and sustainable funding relationships.
