The most unhinged crash course in finding problems worth solving

Hello friends!

This wasn’t the original plan 😱, we were supposed to be taking a break this week!! But alas - no rest for the wickedly ambitious 😉

We’re opening the doors to the plughouse this Friday for an impromptu co-work sesh + crash course on problem solving with our friend Alex Revill. Alex is building [NO IDEAS] - the first incubator where ideas are banned!

🚫 This Friday, startup ideas are BANNED

Paul Graham’s best advice for finding startup ideas is NOT to look for startup ideas. It’s to look for problems worth solving.

If you’re uncertain or you’re lacking clarity around whether your startup is solving a problem that actually matters, this one’s for you. We’re going to spend the afternoon unconvering problem discovery methods that’ll move the needle in the right direction and get you off the hamster wheel.

In this experimental, competitive, and slightly risky workshop, Alex will debut the principles of this new methodology through a practical crash-course in problem mining: the art of finding epic problems hidden in plain sight.

Side effects may include highly differentiated startup ideas

👥 Who’s this for

Founders who want to stop building stuff they don’t know that the world needs. Come through if you want clarity and you’re struggling to define what problem you solve.

🗓️ The Agenda

Time: 1:30pm - 5pm

Alex will kick off with an introduction to ProblemKit & the No Ideas incubator (30 min)

Followed by a high-stakes competition that trains you in the principles of ‘Problem Mining’ (1hr 30min)

Then a 30 min break, concluded with competition results and judging for 1hr, ending 4:30-5pm

📥 You’ll leave with

✅ Knowledge of how to run true problem discovery

✅ Clarity on your next steps

✅ Maybe even some ideas… who knows 👀
