Evidence Based Entrepreneurship
The only way to know whether an idea has potential is to set up experiments to test the hypothesis and gather data. The fundamental activity of your startup is to turn ideas into products, measure how customers respond, and know whether to pivot or persevere.

Work Smarter Not Harder
The question is not “Can this product be built?” Instead, the question is “Should this product be built?” Understanding the problems you are solving is the measure of progress in a Lean Startup – not lines of working code or development milestones.

Learn Through Validation
The only way to win is to learn faster than anyone else by using data and metrics to build a better startup faster. Learn how to drive your startup: how to steer, when to turn, and when to persevere and grow a business with maximum acceleration.
