An MVP, or Minimum Viable Product, is the simplest version of your idea that you can put in front of real users.

The goal isn’t to build everything at once. Build the core idea, test it, learn from real feedback, and improve from there.

Start small. Get feedback. Improve fast.

A class project doesn’t have to end when the semester does.

Take an idea you’ve already built, tested, or researched and see where it could go next. The Regis Innovation Challenge gives students the opportunity to turn classroom ideas into real businesses with mentorship, resources, and support.

Your first customer probably won’t come from a big launch. Start with real conversations, find a specific problem worth solving, and deliver enough value to earn their trust. Start with one, learn, then repeat.

A lot of what people hear about starting a business makes it sound harder than it needs to be.

You don’t need the perfect idea, a perfect business plan, a lot of money, or a 24/7 work schedule to start building something.

Start with what you have. Test your ideas. Talk to people. Learn as you go.

That’s what building is about.

Some of the best ideas do not start as business ideas.

They start as side projects, experiments, or something you build with friends because you think it would be useful or interesting.

The Innovation Challenge is a place to take those ideas seriously. Build something, test it, learn from it, and see where it goes.

A good business idea should be easy to explain.

Try the one-minute test: What problem are you solving? How does your idea solve it? Who actually cares enough to pay for it?

You do not need a 30-page business plan to start testing an idea. Start simple, talk to potential customers, and keep refining from there.

Colorado has become a strong place to start and grow a business.

There is a lot happening across Denver, Boulder, and the rest of the state, from new startups and investment to growing industries and more opportunities for founders.

It is a great ecosystem to learn from, and an even better one to build in.
