The Pre-Build Checklist: What Most Startup Founder Skip

Building a startup is hard. But what makes it harder is discovering, months in, that the foundation was never solid to begin with. Most early-stage founders spend their energy on the wrong things first: perfecting the product, designing the brand, or pitching before they even know if the problem is real.

This session cuts through that noise. Brings a no-fluff, field-tested checklist for founders who want to build something that actually lasts. Whether you are still in ideation or already moving but feeling something is off, this is the reset you need before you go further.

Come with your biggest assumption about your business. Leave with a clearer picture of what to do next.

💡What You’ll Learn:
• How to honestly assess your readiness as a founder before writing a single line of code or spending a single rupiah
• Why chasing ideas is the wrong move
• What to look for in a co-founder, and how mentors can give you asymmetric leverage early on
• How to decide when to pivot and when to push through⁠
• And related topics you need to care about before building your startup
