Defining the problem
To define the problem, first the vision must be defined. Clear objectives should be described and outlined. The Speaker Meet problem came about as a result of technology speakers looking for a single, centralized place in which to find speaking opportunities and venues. It was determined that user group and conference organizers were equally in need of a solution to seek and find speakers for their meetings.
Thus, the idea for Speaker Meet was born. But, how would the application work? Should it be a mobile application or a website? How would the data be collected and managed? Would users be allowed to create their own profiles? Could users submit speaker, community, and conference information? Where would the application live and how would it be hosted? And where in the world do we begin?
