Founder, Weekend MVP
John Iseghohi
Helping non-technical founders ship a real MVP in a weekend — ideas, checklists, and live build sessions.
Bio
John Iseghohi founded Weekend MVP to close the gap between “I have an idea” and “here’s a live URL.” The site publishes research-backed startup idea breakdowns, practical build guides, and a free 48-hour starter kit aimed at people who ship on nights and weekends.
He runs a community of 400+ weekend builders and hosts live workshops where attendees leave with a deployed MVP and a locked build plan — not another slide deck.
