What is the exact problem that you're addressing? Is the time right for your idea? Is the state of technology ready for your envisioned solution? \;\nWho are your intended customers and what do they look like? How many of them are there in your intended market area ? How many are currently in the market for what you have to sell? And be tween you and your competition\, how many will want to buy your solution instead of someone else's? \;\n \;\nAll of this is not an exact science - but the more realistic your estimates\, the better your chance s of gauging your chance of success\, and the more credible you will be to a potential investor. \;\n \;\nCome hear from Dave Shanley\, ne w TiE Oregon Charter Member and CEO/Founder of Notion\,who will speak ab out Market/ Opportunity Assessment. \;\n \;\nAfter the talk\, as a lways\, we will be practicing pitches!

What if I held a Spaces event where founders got to pitch their startu p or startup concept to an audience? \;\n \;\nWe've had a number o f amazing founders sign up to participate. Now\, we need an audience to listen to their pitches. Won't you please join us? \;\n \;\n****** ****************************** \;\n \;\nIf you’ve got a startup to pitch at a future event — it doesn’t have to be tech — please sign up. We'll ask you to deliver a three minute pitch on your company. And then I may ask you a couple of follow up questions\, but we won’t open it up to a full Q&\;A. So it should be a safe space. That means\, even if y ou haven’t perfected your pitch\, it’s a good environment to practice.&# 13\;\n \;\nhttps://airtable.com/shrbhvH34pzlSPArH\n\nTags: free\, sta rtup\, startups\, entrepreneur\, entrepreneurs\, founder\, founders\, co founder\, cofounders\, portland\, pdx\, community\, online\, pitch\, aud io\, twitter\, spaces\, twitter spaces\n\nImported from: http://calagato r.org/events/1250477632 URL:https://www.meetup.com/PIE-Portland-startup-community/events/27701858 2/ SUMMARY:Have you heard about this startup…?
