Course Description

The I-Corps program is all about customer discovery! The I-Corps Program supports teams through an intensive 7-meeting critical evaluation. Our goal is to help faculty, students, and the community answer important questions about their business, product, or technology idea through coaching and direct customer interactions.

The I-Corps program can help you:

• Get clarity on your customer
• Learn and apply best practices on the business model canvas
• Get direct feedback on your business idea
• Expand your network and access needed resources
• Level up your business!
