Deep dives

The Concept of an Idea Fair

A new idea for an 'Idea Fair' is introduced, designed to foster creativity and feedback among budding entrepreneurs. This event would allow participants to present their business ideas in a structured format, with a focus on receiving constructive input rather than seeking funding. Presenters would have a limited time, perhaps three minutes, to communicate their concept, followed by a short Q&A session from the audience. The goal is to cultivate a community-driven atmosphere where attendees can explore ideas, collaborate, and share insights and expertise.

This is a double episode, and next Monday is part 2, where we discuss three more great business ideas.
