Brainstorming the kind of application that we would like to do Then thought of an area of business where the application could be used Forming the idea
Quick market research on the industry Contacting gyms Designing and coding the mobile application Gathering more people to the project What did we do next
Intensive team work Brainstorming with the gyms Steering groups Eventually working with the consultants as well Collaboration
Service for gyms and health clubs –Offering training plans made by personal trainers –Mobile software and a website –TEKES TULI-funding –Gyms interested in piloting Eventually we had 6 people in the team –2 mobile coders –2 website coders –2 business guys Our project
The solution
Having the first pilot with the prototype in February 2010 Having a ”finished” product in summer 2010 and testing it in the Autumn 2010 Applying for more funding Establishing a company in the end of 2010 What was planned
The project is on hold –We all got real jobs for the summer, couple of us graduated –The project needed more time than we had –Planning of the project was not detailed enough –Communication was not sufficient Current state
