A short introduction into Lean Startup for the ETH Innovation and Entrepreneurship Lab (ieLab). We want to show the Startups of this incubuator how Lean Startup changes the way startups work.

Editor's Notes
- My vision is to establish L.Startup as the standard for entrepreneurs and investors in CH. Talk early phase Startups: Idea, Concept (ab hier), Firm (ab hier Investition), growth and with strong focus on soft facts
- Economist and BA: Entrepreneur, who failed several times; Agile mgt.: Mitarbeitende schaffen in dezentralen, selbstorganiserten und organisationsübergreifenden Teams, demonstrieren am Ende von kurzen Iterationen dem Kunden ihre Resultate und verbessern sich mit Hilfe deren Feedback kontinuierlich.
- Flipp Chart: What should be covered that you think that your investment to participitate paid off? Inspect and adapt
- How I learnt about it .... All members of the same family: They share the same PDCA-DNA
- 2 distinctively different ways: like black and white Conventional: exc. Plan an and exc. execution of plan by good people, cool idea and then perseverance Jeffrey Liker, The Toyota Way, 2003: What distinguishes the Toyota Way from other mgt. approaches

- StartAngels Website: First Trial of Lean Startup Entrepreneurs hip, Mgt. dull. Boring stuff like innovation accounting. Here perserverance is king. MVP: e.g. a designer produces a new chair on which you can not sit.Innovation accounting: how to measure progress, how to set-up milestones, and how to prioritise work. Head Marketing: Do you know Lean Startup? Sure. Do you know Split- or A/B Testing? Sure. Are we doing it? No. Why. Because, we have no time ...
- Drew Houston, CEO; leap-of-faith assumptions: the part on which everything depends. Video, because it was difficult to explain the concept and it was impossible to demo the SW in a prototype.
- Startup aimed to become service provider in an emerging business called “precision agriculture”. So they looked for money to build a Drone, with special camera and SW to get the best data. MVP: Rent camera and plane instead of building a drone and offer the images to farmers. Lessons learned A minimum viable product is not always a smaller/cheaper version of your final product Think about cheap hacks to test the goal Great founders keep their eye on the prize
