SUMMARY:Before You Build: How to Define the Right MVP for Your Startup
DESCRIPTION:Featuring LaToya Allen\, Founder of NoteLoft\n​Building too early—or building too much—is one of the most expensive mistakes an early-stage founder can make. Before you write a single line of code or hire a designer\, you need a roadmap that prioritizes revenue over “feature creep.”\n​Join LaToya Allen\, founder of NoteLoft and veteran software engineer\, for a high-impact session on defining a lean\, investor-ready MVP. With 13 years of experience building for both startups and enterprise\, LaToya will show you how to cut through the noise and ship what actually matters.\n​In this session\, we’ll cover:\n​The “Problem First” Framework: Identifying the single most important hurdle your product must clear.\nFeature Prioritization: How to ruthlessly decide what stays and what goes in V1.\n​The AI Litmus Test: Does AI actually belong in your MVP\, or is it a distraction?\nRoadmapping: Creating a path from initial launch to a scalable\, revenue-focused product.\n​Whether you’re a solo founder or leading an executive team\, this talk will give you the tools to ship faster than your competitors can hire. \nShare this location:
