This document discusses the differences between startups and small businesses, and outlines the customer development process that startups should follow to search for a viable business model. It notes that most startups fail due to a lack of customers, not due to product failures, and that founders are often wrong in their assumptions about what customers want. It advocates getting out of the building to test hypotheses with real customers from the beginning, rather than following a traditional product development model and then hiring marketing to create demand.
No startup business experiences the same journey to success, but there are general stages that most companies move through as they grow:
1) Validation
2) Product Development
3) Commercialization
4) Scale/Growth
The Center for Entrepreneurial Innovation (CEI) helps its clients through these stages of business development and offers best practices for each stage. Represented by an amazing lineup of speakers, including Hart Shafer (Innovation Coach / Founder, Theraspecs), Eric Miller (Principal, PADT Inc.), Nate Curran (Entrepreneur-in-Residence, CEI) and Russ Yelton (CEO, Pinnacle Transplant Technologies, "The Startup Lifecycle" presentation offers unique insights and best practices for entrepreneurs growing their business.
Foundation structure of startup assessment is the startup lifecycle. we can Understand where a startup is in their lifecycle allows us to assess their progress. The startup life cycle is made of 6 stages of development, where each stage is made up of levels of sub stages.

Steve Jobs' LEAN STARTUP PROJECT MANAGEMENT: How Steve Jobs Planned, Organize...Rod King, Ph.D.
Steve Jobs' approach to creating extraordinarily successful products is shrouded in mystery. This presentation introduces a new framework, "Lean Startup Project Management", which can be used to explain Steve Jobs' innovation methodology which was largely intuitive. As the name implies, Lean Startup Project Management focuses on translating into reality ideas and principles from Eric Ries's bestselling book, "The Lean Startup." The core tool of Lean Startup Project Management is the One-Page Lean Startup which is a multilevel dashboard. Whereas existing approaches focus on using a tactical dashboard for Lean Startup Project Management, the One-Page Lean Startup uses 3 integrated dashboards: visionary, strategic, and tactical One-Page Lean Startup. Users end up saving time, money, energy, and lots of other resources. Experiment with the One-Page Lean Startup and provide us with your feedback.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
