Sam is the cofounder of Vision Spatial Technologies, a startup that builds safety equipment for recreational facilities like ski resorts. We talk more about his experiences with mentorship, build-measure-learn cycles, and MVPs in this interview. To learn more about Sam's company, visit www.visionspatialtech.com P.S. Some fancy words Sam used: - MVP = minimum viable product. The least complicated product that allows you to test if your business idea makes sense. - Build, measure, learn cycles = cycles of building an iteration of a product, measuring data (ex: user signup rate), and analysing that data to see if the product iteration is successful. - Compliant Mechanism = A flexible 3D printed part that can bend to perform its task. - Raspberry Pi = A type of 'mini-computer' that can fit in the palm of your hand. It can take in data from sensors (ex: temperature sensors) and send that data to other electronics (ex: a wifi transmitter). - Backend server = a computer running that deals with parts of software that users don't interact with. For example, saving and retrieving data like user settings. Timeline
