Invest Ottawa is hosting a virtual workshop on validating business concepts through the integration of cash flow analysis and the startup canvas model on September 24, 2026. This session teaches participants how to assess whether their business ideas are financially viable by combining strategic frameworks with financial modeling. The virtual format allows participants to join from anywhere and learn essential business planning and financial analysis skills.
Why it’s worth going
This workshop is particularly relevant for finance and accounting students because it demonstrates how foundational accounting skills—specifically cash flow analysis and financial forecasting—are applied in entrepreneurial and advisory contexts. Whether you’re considering a career in financial planning, management accounting, or startup advisory, understanding how to translate business models into financial projections is a critical skill. The session bridges the gap between theoretical accounting knowledge and practical business application.
Going in prepared
Ensure you have reliable internet access and a quiet space to participate fully in the virtual session. Review the basics of cash flow statements and startup business models so you can engage meaningfully with the content. Prepare questions about how financial modeling is used to validate business ideas or how accountants support entrepreneurs. Have note-taking tools ready, whether digital or paper, to capture key frameworks and takeaways that you can reference in future coursework or career planning.
