Evidence before the Melbourne business case gets thicker
Melbourne companies are fluent in the business case and late to the customer. This sprint is for a team with a live bet and a sponsor who is allowed to kill it. Collective Campus has run the one-day version with a cross-functional Sportsbet team so people without a startup background could name assumptions, prototype and decide.
We deliver that same format in Melbourne, in your office or a room in the city, or hybrid on Australia East hours. You bring the idea. We will not spend the day on a canned startup story. You leave with a test that fits the resources you already have.
- Sportsbet put a cross-functional team through a one-day lean startup workshop with Collective Campus: assumptions, prototypes and a pivot-or-proceed call.
- The Melbourne session uses that format on a bet you bring, in person or hybrid on Australia East hours.
- For innovation, venture and product teams, plus the sponsor who has to fund or stop the work.
- Client marks and quotes on this page are the national ones. We do not invent a local testimonial.
The problem
Big bets. Long roadmaps. No idea if it'll work.
Betting blind
Months of build committed before a single customer has weighed in.
Sunk-cost creep
Nobody wants to kill the project everyone's already spent on.
Feedback too late
You only find out it missed once it's shipped, the most expensive time to learn.
What you'll walk away with
By the end of the sprint, your team will have
- Your riskiest assumptions surfaced and ranked
- An MVP or prototype built to test the biggest one
- Real signal from real customers, not internal opinion
- A clear go / pivot / kill decision, backed by evidence
- An experiment backlog and a Build-Measure-Learn cadence to keep running

Questions about running this in Melbourne
Can the product sprint run in person in Melbourne?
Yes. At your Melbourne office or a room in the city, or hybrid on Australia East hours when a sponsor joins from elsewhere. Collective Campus is based in Melbourne.
Who should bring the idea?
Innovation, venture and product teams in Melbourne who have a live bet, and the sponsor who can kill it. Sportsbet used the one-day format so people with no startup background could test assumptions and decide. Bring your own idea. We will not use a case study.
How do we book the Melbourne sprint?
Use the contact form. Tell us the bet, who must be in the room and whether you need one day or a longer sprint. We will scope it from that.
Is this a talk about startups?
No. You leave with a test you can run with what you already have, and criteria the room agrees on: kill, pivot or scale.
