Design a venture that could positively impact one million people within ten years.

Reaching a million people forces you to think about distribution, unit economics and trust from day one.

Real-world context

Reaching a million people forces you to think about distribution, unit economics and trust from day one. Big impact requires designing for scale from the start.

The challenge

Design a venture that could positively impact one million people within ten years. Study who is affected, dig past the obvious symptoms to the real root causes, and design a solution that could actually work in the real world. There is no single correct answer — what matters is the quality of your thinking, the stakeholders you consider, and how clearly you justify your chosen direction.

Reflection prompts

  • Who is most affected by this problem, and how did you account for them?
  • What is the single biggest risk to your solution working?
  • Which assumption, if wrong, would break your whole idea?
