Description
The first step in starting an entrepreneurial venture is to identify a problem and the second step is to shape a solution that creates a viable business model. In this assignment, students use primary and secondary research to support the identification/and or preliminary validation of the problem they feel is driving an idea identified in the Idea Journal assignment. For example, if a student felt there was a lack of access to healthy and affordable food for college students. Their research assignment should verify this is a problem ?and describe the scope of the problem. After the problem is selected and researched, the students receive feedback evaluating how effective they were at creating a compelling analysis/discussion of the problem. Students conclude the assignment by providing a solution to this problem through the creation of a new business. This assignment is no more than 5 pages in length and should include links to survey data and results, questions, and secondary sources. This should include a bibliography of sources you used to gather the information.

our first
assignment
was to list 10 ideas with problem and solution that can make a good business opportunity. out of those we have chosen consultation app idea to work with.
Consultation app
Problem: I often found myself being overwhelmed with information from the internet when I wanted to know about something. I wish if I could talk with an expert that could guide me through the whole thing as the internet rarely gives a direct answer unless you read through a lot of articles.
Solution: a consultation platform that has thousands of professionals. People like me who wanted a direct answer quickly could book a
professional
for a set fee. They could ask questions and get answers directly and easily. To make it authentic certifications experience and proofs will be required. This could be benefit both parties.
this was the idea, so basically it is an app platform for all consultations. medical, law, mental, etc.
