Winter 2023 Start Studio MVP participants were hard at work for six weeks!
Using a low-code/no-code platform (Glide, Bubble or NixCode) the founders worked together with MVP developer specialists over the course of the six-week program. They followed an iterative process to build a web-based or mobile application that allows customers to purchase the founders’ product or service directly through that application. At the end of the six-week program, founders prepped for and live-pitched a final demonstration of their MVP for the Start Studio MVP Demo Day event on March 1 to begin growing their early adopter customer base.
Seven entrepreneurs went head-to-head for TechTown’s Start Studio MVP Demo Day People’s Choice award. After the round of public voting, MySpiro was named the People’s Choice Award winner and was awarded $1,500 for their tech-based business. The runner-up was Trip Slip.
