Tech for Non-Techies 250. Less Tech, More Value: Why Simpler Digital Products Win
The more technology you put into your product, the worse it can get.
In this episode, Sophia Matveeva talks with Zahra Almahoozi, founder of DARB and recent graduate of the Tech for Non-Technical Founders program in Bahrain.

- Are building a digital product and wondering what to include
- Want to create something users will actually adopt (instead of ignore)
- Are looking to validate your concept with minimal investment
- Why starting with WhatsApp groups or Google Forms can be more effective than complex technology
- The three things every non-technical innovator must know to communicate effectively with developers
