About this listen

Have you ever wondered what makes some Apps successful and others not? Do you have an idea for an App but don’t know where to start? This six-part series will give you valuable insights into seeing if your App has got what it takes.

With the help of three successful App founders and our resident App expert - we’ll be investigating and answering some of your questions. Chris O’Hare, Sussex graduate and founder of award-winning technology consultancy Hare Digital, drills down into common mistakes and things to consider at every step of the App development journey.

This limited series will tackle everything from developing your idea, testing it to see if there’s an audience willing to pay for it, to building your prototype and funding your App. Later in this series we’ll also be looking at things you need to consider when building and launching your App, as well as investigating how and when to grow your business.

This podcast series is brought to you by the University of Sussex and is part of the University’s knowledge exchange programmes.
