SwSanandaj or Start up weekend of Sanandaj was an event that I joined it like a business and IT mentor. This event started in Autumn 2015 for first time in Kurdistan province with more than 100 volunteers.
Volunteers was full of energy and had great ideas. In this evet 12 teams works together and build their products or services. I was business and IT mentor and I try to coach teams to have new expriences of business.
SwSanandaj had three workshops that wanted to teach some IT and business concepts like Business Model Canvas, Presentations, MVP and some topics that all teams need to know about them even a bit!
My subject was about MVP or Minimum Viable Product for teams and how they can have a feedback system for their products or services:
At first was difficult but step by step teams leads to new path and they collect new expriences and found new ways to develop their ideas and convert it to some products or services which was need of markets.
I can say one of the best startup weekends in Iran was SwSanandaj.
