      What's the hardest part of building a media startup? Figuring out the problem to solve on behalf of your user. If you can't figure out a real verifiable problem to solve, you can't create engagement, you can't create value and relevance... and so you can't make money. This workshop on user-first problem identification is all about understanding your user's needs and pain points so you can build a product around it.
