What Makes a Successful Business Idea?
Presented by Mike Mata
Who this workshop is for:
UC Irvine students and technologists actively starting or planning to start new businesses.
What you will learn:
The imagery of American business success is steeped in the notion of the technological “Big Idea” which disrupts the status quo and dramatically changes the way we behave and do things. Yet, we all know of entrepreneurs like Howard Schultz of Starbucks who have built great businesses based on simple notions of customer service, quality and convenience without having a single technological breakthrough in sight. What do these extremes have in common? Are they really different sides of the same coin? In this workshop, presenter Mike Mata discusses those attributes of a particular business idea that strongly indicate the likelihood that the business will not only survive but indeed prosper. Included in the discussion are the pivotal roles played by various success drivers.
