Cohort Analysis - how to do it in practice with Google Analytics (Barcelona)
The aim is to continue Dan Hill thoughts from LeanCamp London:
"Cohort analysis is a powerful tool to understand your customers and ensure the product decisions you're making are actually creating a better service for your users. How being better should come before, and ultimately leads faster to, being bigger.
We'll look at what a cohort analysis is, how to use one in your startup or company, and how you can get started quickly with tools you're already using. Let me know if you have any thoughts or ideas for focus!"

Guesstimations: nunca dejes que la falta de un dato te impida seguir avanzando
Esta charla se impartirá en castellano. Esta es una charla sencilla que toca un tema de gran utilidad práctica. Cuando emprendes, especialmente si estás 'trampeando', a menudo te encuentras con que un dato que crees necesitas para seguir avanzando no está a tu alcance. "Oh, Dios Mío, no sale en Google!". Y ni hablar de hacer un 'estudio de mercado' o similar. Llegados a ese punto, lo mejor es 'Guesstimar'. Un ejemplo claro es determinar si tu mercado es atractivo - si es suficientemente grande. En diez minutos puedes conseguir una cifra que te permitirá continuar avanzando. No es magia,…

Cómo trabajar, de verdad, con tus supuestos e hipótesis: el uso de los Árboles Lógicos de TOC
Esta charla se impartirá en castellano. Es muy fácil decirle a un emprendedor que la mayor parte de lo que cree son "supuestos" y que debe "verificarlos". Lo que nadie te enseña es una manera de trabajar de forma estructurada, sistemática y solvente con dichos supuestos. Las mejores herramientas del mundo para hacer esto fueron desarrolladas por el Dr. Goldratt, padre de la Theory of Constraints. Se denominan 'Thinking Processes' y coloquialmente, Árboles Lógicos. Esta herramienta contiene sus propios 'tests' para verificar la solidez del razonamiento y ayuda a identificar, sí que sí, qué supuestos son críticos y deben testarse…

Using the Business Model Canvas to spot assumptions #bmgen
Having used the canvas for several years, and now working directly with Alex Osterwalder, I've met a lot of people who have developed new techniques with it. Some of them have been instrumental in spotting killer assumptions, so I'd like to share those with you. Broadly, I'll tell you about finding critical points in your business model assumptions, choosing a growth engine, validating your business model with real and hypothetical numbers, and if there's time, prototyping widely to spot better hypotheses and record better customer input. I imagine this will be a fast and broad overview, so if there's any…

How can accelerators and incubators help you maximize the potential of your business idea?
In the beginning everyone does mistakes. It's difficult to launch a new product and a new company and lots of startups died in the first 6 months because they don't have the right knowledge, support, network and tools to launch a business.
So, I would like to ask everyone to share their start-up experiences and I would like to hear your ideas on how accelerators and incubators should work in order to help start-ups maximize their potential since the very beginning.8 votes -
Integrating design and research into Agile
What is the best way to integrate customer development research and design into product development using Agile?
I have no solutions and I'm looking to start a debate with people applying Agile, both from the development and design (UX/Visual design) perspectives, so we can find together some actionable ideas to implement in our work.
Some problems I find from the research/design front:
- it's difficult to estimate research when your audience have not been defined.
- research tasks need to be redefined and time extended to get relevant results.
- design tasks have an iterative nature, how you fit that in sprints where…
