Product-Market Fit + Go To Market Strategy: A Free Lightning Workshop for Founders
Roll back
| description |
nil |
→ |
A toolkit for founders from Ali Maaxa, Ph.D., incubation product & marketing strategist (founder: ProductTheory.io, former: AWS AI, New Relic AI, Meta AI, Recreation.gov), guest VC expert Marianne Motus (UC Berkeley Business School), PDX startup dev team Semi-Decent, and leaders from CHIFOO and the ORPIB Incubator.
This is a FREE lightning workshop to help scrappy startup founders nail product-market fit (PMF) and go-to-market strategy (GTM). Be your own incubator, be nimble, and be ready to answer deep strategic questions for potential investors, flagship customers, or strategic partners — in a flash.
Sure, PMF and GTM are buzzwords thrown around constantly. But they stand in for due diligence that actually makes a difference. Skipping the fundamentals is the primary reason 91% of startups fail:
The classic frameworks that undergird successful incubations — from enterprise AI to EdTech startups
Rigorous market research powered by smart AI context engineering
Real-deal, progressive hypothesis-testing toward a heavy-hitting MVP
In fact, 82% of "failed" founders say that challenging their assumptions about their market would have saved their business.
Most startups don't find product-market fit for one of two reasons: consultancies charge high overhead to run studies and then throw their findings over the wall — or founders rely on raw AI outputs without the frameworks and context engineering that hold up under VC scrutiny and real product + user discovery.
Founders need a toolkit they can use throughout their entire product and business development journey. Before you hire a fractional, take generic expert advice from someone who doesn't understand your context, or worse — guess your way into brand damage — let us help you develop your ProductTheory with startup-friendly canvases that will anchor your pitch deck and your upcoming rounds of critical business decisions.

A free, public workshop—no technical background needed
In just a few years, AI has advanced at a pace that stunned even leading experts. These systems aren’t science fiction anymore—they’re reshaping work, relationships, and even crime in real time.
This workshop explores where AI may be in the next 1–5 years and what that means for your daily life. Together, we’ll tackle urgent questions like:
Jobs: Could AI lead to mass unemployment—or entirely new kinds of work?
Crime: How might AI supercharge scams, hacking, and even physical crime?
Companions: Will people form deep emotional bonds—or even romantic relationships—with AI assistants?
Society: How do top researchers think these trends will shape our future?
What you’ll get:
A fast-paced, beginner-friendly overview of today’s most powerful AI systems
Live demos that reveal both the breakthroughs and the risks
An interactive forecasting exercise where you’ll test your own predictions about AI’s impact
Come ready to explore a future arriving faster than most people realize—one that could transform not just how we work, but how we trust and connect. |

Building D3.js Visualizations For Non-Technical Audiences

This presentation introduces D3.js as a powerful tool for transforming complex data into clear, meaningful visual stories which non-technical audiences can understand and use. It explains what D3.js is, how it works with web technologies and why visualization is essential for revealing patterns and insights raw data alone cannot show.
This talk emphasizes designing visualizations with the audience in mind while also covering core D3 concepts such as data binding, scales, layouts and interactive graphics. Through examples, case studies, design principles and practical tips, this presentation demonstrates how builders can use D3.js to communicate ideas effectively and empower people to discover insights from data. |

Eric has a new book coming out on May 26 called Incorruptible. It's about how to build companies that stay mission-driven over the long term. While The Lean Startup helps entrepreneurs create valuable organizations, Incorruptible covers how and why to protect them.
Brad Feld is the author of Startup Communities and co-founder of TechStars. He recently published a new book called Give First: The Power of Mentoring.
In this virtual fireside chat, Brad and Eric will discuss the lessons learned as founders, investors, and advisors. The goal is to share useful insights and practical frameworks to accelerate your learning. |

Escaping GTM Hell: From Activity to Impact

When targets get missed, the instinct is to do more. More leads. More calls. More pressure. That's not a strategy. That's GTM hell.
This session works on two levels - providing immediate strategies to improve results now and a framework for building a repeatable growth engine going forward.
In 45 minutes, we'll walk through:
- Eight pillars that drive (or stall) growth
- What each looks like when it drifts
- A prioritization lens for where to act first, without blowing up what's working
This session is designed for growth-stage companies navigating real commercial complexity: expanding into B2B, managing hybrid revenue models, or outgrowing the motion that got you here.
You'll leave with a clear path out of the activity spiral and back to efficient revenue growth. |

Volunteer helpers are as desirable as helpees. Helping is fun and rewarding. If you've ever helped out at a PLUG Clinic before, come checkout the space!

The Willamette University space is on the second floor. You may enter the building from the parking lot adjacent to 10th Avenue. The stairway to the 2nd floor is gated, but that should be unlocked (if not, look for a PLUG notice with a Penguin and a phone number you can SMS to get let in). The off-street parking adjacent to 10th Avenue is "open to the public on weekends", but probably safest to pick the slots marked Guest, if available. If your SMS is unresponsive (we've seen some delay in delivery recently), try calling the number, presumably that will ring.
Optionally, pizza is available on premises, other food options are available nearby. |
