Every startup is going through a number of development stages that are crucial for the survival and success. With new approaches, such as the business model canvas and the lean startup method available, development happens faster, more iterative and agile. In this part of the course we look at the methods and tools that are available for startups and the very basic thoughts and requirements that all entrepreneurs should be aware of.
