The team made progress today on deciding upon a name for our application in development. Refetch was worked on in the technical side, as a new member joined the crew to take on a more practical role to deliver the pitches for the group in the future.

In addition to working on the actual application, speakers such as Pekka Rauhala shared their experience of entrepreneurship focus and his experience working in the executive board for different mobile operating services worldwide. Moreover, after the insightful presentation, he came and offered us certain key ideas to focus on:

-          Who the end consumer was

-          How the application would be marketed, to whom, and at what cost

As well, he offered to help provide a link between our team and other business’s involved in software development through the different acquaintances he had made during his many years of work in the mobile telecommunications industry.

To conclude, the team coaches came to see the progress the team had made, and encouraged us to focus on 3 different aspects:

1)      The development of the actual application, and its layout

2)      The pitch, and how it should be delivered

3)      To have in mind who the end consumer was, and how our application would be of need/interest for them.
