This document provides an overview of innovation and entrepreneurship concepts presented by Tara Scanlan. It defines innovation as a new or better way of doing something that creates value for customers. Innovation can be incremental, involving continuous improvements, or revolutionary disruptive innovations. Markets are classified as perfectly competitive, monopoly, or oligopoly based on the number of buyers and sellers and barriers to entry. The document stresses that companies need to anticipate, adapt, and achieve through internal innovation efforts and responding to external factors like policies and markets to stay competitive. Homework involves writing a 100-word example of an innovative Japanese product and its business entity/industry.

Customer Development and Entrepreneurship 101 Tara Scanlan
The document provides an overview of entrepreneurship including its history and definitions. It discusses how entrepreneurship has been defined over time from taking risks to exploit opportunities (Cantillon) to shifting resources to higher productivity (Say) to driving economic progress through creative disruption of existing products and services (Schumpeter). It also discusses characteristics of entrepreneurs like tenacity, passion, vision, rule breaking. Examples are given of successful entrepreneurs like the founders of Listerine who changed the product's use over time and McDonald's who established fast food processes.
QUEST FOR THE ULTIMATE BUSINESS TOOL: Business Plan vs. Business Model Canvas...Rod King, Ph.D.
What is the Ultimate Business Tool (UBT)? Is it the 1-Page Business Plan, Business Model Canvas, Lean Canvas, or Balanced Scorecard?
My research indicates that the Ultimate Business Tool is none of the above. The closest to the ultimate tool is Mathew May's Play-To-Win Strategy Canvas. Going beyond the Play-To-Win Strategy Canvas is the RODopoly Gameboard which holistically answers the seven RODopoly questions. These questions are based on many ideas including Roger Martin's cascade of 5 Strategy Questions as well as Porter's Five Forces and Brandenburger & Nalebuff's Value Net.
With regard to the Ultimate Business Tool, I'd nominate the Seven RODopoly Questions, for the right questions are more important than the tools. Without questions, tools do not have much relevance. Questions define the goal or Job To Get Done (JTGD) of tools.
Albert Einstein once said, "The important thing is not to stop questioning." What more can I say?
Introduction to UX for Mesiniaga AcademyZainul Zain
The document provides an introduction to UX (user experience) design. It begins by distinguishing UX from UI (user interface), noting that UX design is based on thorough user research and testing, while UI focuses only on visual screen elements. The key aspects of UX include user research, prototyping, design, and development with the goal of intuitive, effective experiences. User research, especially getting accurate user requirements, is described as the most important part of UX design to avoid scope creep and ensure projects meet user needs. The document then discusses wireframing as a method for capturing content, organization and interactions before development begins.
This document outlines an agenda for a Lean Canvas workshop. The workshop introduces the Lean Canvas template and guides participants through exercises to fill out each section, including: customer segments, problems, solutions, unique value propositions, revenue streams, channels, cost structure, key metrics, and unfair advantages. The goal is for entrepreneurs to identify problems customers are facing, propose solutions, and start thinking about how to validate ideas and business models at an early stage through customer interactions and testing assumptions. The workshop emphasizes testing ideas outside the building by getting feedback from potential customers.
Early prevention of accessibility issues with mockup & wireframe reviewsAidan Tierney
A mockup or wireframe review is an opportunity to identify interaction design elements which are not fully accessible and will require changes. It's also the best time to identify any items that will need additional requirements to avoid becoming accessibility defects later on. After demonstrating the technique we will practice on a sample mockup. You'll leave this session with skills to apply on your next sprint.

Bootstrap 3 and 4 are front-end frameworks that provide HTML and CSS templates. This document compares the differences between Bootstrap 3 and 4. It outlines changes to components like grids, forms, buttons, images and navbars. Some key differences include Bootstrap 4 having a 5-tier grid system compared to 4 tiers in Bootstrap 3, and dropping features like glyphicons and changing class names.
Lean Canvas is great tool for startups. But sometimes people find it confusing, especially the "flow". And it is missing some important bits'n'pieces for a early stage startup.
I have adjusted the flow of canvas, removed certain non-important things and included things I have found important (like CAC and CLV).
The FTE Canvas can be used as when developing the startups first pitch deck and when you are thingking of your first startup.

Editor's Notes
- Be clear and concise: first impressions are hard to break, so the way you introduce yourself, specifcally as a business professionall is improtant .
How would you define innovation? (write down)
Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Innovation#cite_note-1

Incremental innovation introduces relatively minor changes to existing products.
– exploits the potential of the established design
– tends to reinforce the dominance of established firms.
– often requires considerable skill and ingenuity.
– over time has major economic consequences.
• Radical innovation is based on a different set of engineering and
scientific principles
– often opens new markets and potential applications.
– Creates difficulties for established firms.
• Radical innovation forces capabilities to be re-evaluated
– requires development of new skills.
Give examples
What makes a technology disruptive?
– Competitive Forces (Porter model)
– Technological Evolution/Dominant Design
Technological “Infrastructure”
– Learning/Absorptive Capacity
– Competency creation and destruction
Ipad – challenging the portable computer – leader
Skype – you see lots of people trying to emulate
Netflix – continuous user base and it is consistantly growing
Disruptive innovations don’t have to rule the market , they just have to change the market and force others to follow suite. The goal of disruptive companies is to challenge the conventional market and create a new one

http://www.investopedia.com/terms/m/market.asp
- Markets are a system and have a structure
* Some markets are based on barter and some is based on supply and demand
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Hxy-TuX9fs
*takes three to have a market so that there is at least one person
Relys on much more than just both buers and sellers
Idea is there is no market
Does not exist in real world anywhere
