Ash Maurya

Speaking

I speak on business modeling, customer discovery, and the Running Lean methodology at conferences, accelerators, universities, and companies around the world. Here are full talks, not a highlight reel.

  • Validation as a standing operating cadence, not a one-off sprint.

  • The early talk that became Running Lean, to a packed hall in Vienna.

  • A keynote for founders and funders, with the long-form workshop detail.

  • What changes when the team already has customers, budget, and a brand to protect.

  • The same method, told for an accelerator cohort mid-programme.

  • Why falling for your solution is the expensive mistake. Slides and audio only — the recording never cuts to the room.

Frequent topics

  • Why most products fail, and how to tackle the right risks at the right time
  • Lean Canvas: deconstructing your idea into its riskiest assumptions
  • The Customer Factory: measuring a business model with a handful of numbers
  • Running Lean inside established companies

Formats

Keynotes, half-day and full-day workshops, and cohort programmes, adapted to the audience — from first-time founders to corporate innovation teams. Talks have been given at PODIM Conference, Main-stage keynote, Pioneers Festival, Enterprise Ireland, and dozens of accelerators and universities.
