What is the MVP Program?
MVP stands for minimum viable product; we will turn your idea into a tangible prototype. According to the lean startup model, entrepreneurs should try to validate their initial market with their MVP to ensure there is a positive market response before flesh out the entire product. You may have heard that many failures have resulted from stealth mode product development for years, yet upon release of the final product, the result of market response may not be as idealistic. The purpose of our MVP program is to help you quickly whip out a prototype that clearly depicts your idea for the initial market validation; your early adopters will then help you refine your MVP into a fully fledged product.
Why join our MVP Program?
Three top reasons why you should join our MVP Program!
Accelerate, accelerate, and accelerate! You may have heard or experienced how difficult it maybe to find a technical co-founder if you do not possess the technical expertise. Why not execute in parallel, while we help you whip out the MVP, you will have plenty of time to look for a tech co-founder, plus you will have a much better chance to convince people to join you when you show them something tangible. Here is a must read blog if you are an internet based startup trying to launch a prototype, http://blog.e-phouse.com/.
We have a great pool of technical resources readily available. We have created affiliated partnership with many trusted development teams and individuals, both local and offshore. We just need to hear your idea/requirements, and we will match you with the most suitable talent/team to develop the MVP at very low cost.
Budget limited? No problem. We can accept half cash and half equity! As long as you are a good listener and a good executor, we will accept the risks to take on equity, which means we will continue to help you even after the MVP program. In fact, you will be automatically entered into our next program called Capital Accelerator Program, where we will help you build traction for fundraising.
Who should join MVP Program?
Our primary focus of developing the MPV is in the web/mobile/software space as that’s where we have the most resources. We encourage entrepreneurs to join this program from as early as an idea stage, or if you are in urgent needs of technical talent, you can always reach out to us for help. We could cover other spaces as well such as hardware/electronics, but we will be evaluating projects case by case basis.
How much does a MVP cost and how long does it take?
From our past portfolios and projects, we had MVP projects range between $5K - $15K, and ranges from 1-6 months depends on the complexity of the project. Equity is also acceptable and is negotiable depends on the project and the founding team.
