Stage 1: During our Problem/Solution Fit stage, Meeting Mate concentrated on validating
the business model. Through a series of tests, validation of the hypothesis “If attendees of
online meetings were held more accountable for their attendance and contribution to
online meetings, then online meetings would be more efficient and thus decrease the
costs for the business” “ was achieved.
Stage 2: Meeting Mate is now in the process of validating the solution and testing the
Market Fit. To date a user interface concept has been designed and feedback gathering is
current taking place. Con-currently Meeting Mate is looking to build a database of Beta
User that can be used for Market Testing once the user interface has been finalized.
