Build Smart: MVP Strategies for Black Engineers & Founders
Turning an idea into a real, usable product can feel overwhelming—but it doesn’t have to be. Obsidi® and Black Engineers of Canada (BEC) are teaming up to help aspiring and emerging Black entrepreneurs, engineers, and students learn how to take their tech concepts from idea to impact.
In this virtual Obsidi® Tech Talk, you’ll explore how to define and build a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) that resonates with your customers—without wasting time or budget. You’ll also hear directly from Black founders and product builders who’ve done it themselves, using smart strategies, no-code/low-code tools, and continuous feedback to validate and iterate fast.
☐ What’s in it for you?
✔️ A clear understanding of what an MVP is—and what it’s not
✔️ Real-world tactics to validate your idea and build faster
✔️ Lessons from Black entrepreneurs who’ve launched, failed, pivoted, and scaled
✔️ Networking with a community of Black engineers, builders, and allies
✔️ Insights into tools and mindsets that reduce risk and increase success
Whether you're in the early stages of entrepreneurship or working on your first product idea, this session will give you the frameworks and confidence to take the next step—smartly.
