    Good balance of theory and practice. The business models and unit economics lessons helped me apply writing a business plan in real situations. The idea-validation exercises saved me from building the wrong product.

    Well organised. Revisiting the business models and unit economics part a second time really helped it click. Pitch deck feedback criteria were very practical.

    The section on building an MVP was explained step by step, and the examples made go-to-market and growth much easier to follow. Equity and cap table basics explained without jargon.
