Modern Entrepreneurship
The Lean Startup board game: Playing Lean
Learning by doing always works best, but with games you can take away the risk entirely. Playing Lean is a board game that will go live on Kickstarter on Monday. We had a play test at our office last Thursday and these are the learnings by participant Nico de Haan.
Here is an exclusive sneak peak at the Playing Lean Kickstarter campaign
Growth
How we gathered 2,7K emails & 6,2K pageviews in 72hrs spending only $150
We all know the annoying personality tests, but they actually are somewhat popular under certain audiences.
Trends
Featured on Product Hunt, what Elevio did right and what they'd change
Very valuable learnings on the Product Hunt algorithms and how you can have some influence on where you'll end up.
To understand the future, you need to understand the past
Extremely informative article if you are not aware about Silicon Valley's history, and will shed some light on its future.
Product
Empathy and Product Development
Technology companies have a tendency towards the quantitative. We like to measure things. And there is a lot that can be measured from page load times to net promoter scores. Even in board meetings the question “have we A/B tested that” is common. But the quantitative can only take you so far.
Team
How large companies are building big data teams, and how startups can do the same
All teams – whether they’re Fortune 500s or small startups – have a tendency to bite off more than they can chew. This is especially true with big data, which can be hard to define to begin with.
Thank you
Are you aware of the things we do?
The Startup Foundation and its community are behind this globally focused Curated, but also #startup and Experience (heads up, we're going to Cyprus!). Locally we have a co-working space and a Meetup group.
Sometimes we tell ourselves we should focus more, but somehow we are. Our goal is to facilitate knowledge exchange on modern entrepreneurship. Let us know if you know a great way to do just that, and soon we might do even more.
In the meantime we're constantly working on merging whatever we do into an even more unified and focussed community.
Have a great weekend!
