From 0 to MVP and beyond

A Workshop by Maarten Jansen from Dashdot

Do any of these sound familiar?

You’re unsure where to start when building your MVP.
Your idea feels too broad—or too narrow—to gain traction.
You’re struggling to prioritize features or tasks for development.
You're uncertain whether to outsource development or keep it in-house.
You doubt whether people will actually use or pay for your product.
You feel overwhelmed by the technical or strategic challenges of launching an MVP.

If these challenges resonate, this workshop will provide the tools, structure, and insights to move forward confidently.

What you’ll learn

By the end of this workshop, you’ll walk away with:

Clarity: A clear understanding of what your MVP should and shouldn’t include.
Focus: A quantifiable, prioritized backlog to guide your development.
Structure: A roadmap with actionable next steps to keep your team aligned.
Confidence: Proven tools and frameworks to make decisions with certainty.

This is not (just) a theoretical session—it’s a hands-on experience that helps you turn ideas into action.

The Workshop journey

We structure the workshop in two phases:

Core MVP Principles
Learn the fundamentals of MVP development, including how to define your product’s purpose, prioritize features, and plan strategically.
Interactive workshop
Through guided exercises, you’ll:
- Start a realistic backlog.
- Map out a structured roadmap.
- Create an actionable checklist to guide your development process.

Our combination of theory and practice makes sure you leave the workshop ready to tackle the next phase of your MVP journey.

This workshop is tailored for:

Founders, product managers, and CTOs looking to take their idea to the next level.
Teams or individuals with a semi-solid idea or working proof of concept.
Anyone who needs structure, clarity, and actionable steps to move forward confidently with their product.

Whether you’re launching your first product or refining your process, this workshop will help you build smarter, faster, and with purpose.
