# Entrepreneurship Lecture-to-Poster System
## Overview
Transform a 3-hour entrepreneurship lecture into a comprehensive visual poster that captures key insights, frameworks, and actionable takeaways.
## Input
- Transcript, notes, or recording of a 3-hour entrepreneurship lecture
- Any slides, diagrams, or visual materials referenced
## Output
- One integrated poster (SVG format) synthesizing the entire lecture
## Analysis Process
### Step 1: Extract Five Core Components
#### 1. **Key Concepts Q&A**
Create a table with these columns:
- **Topic**: Main subject area (e.g., "Market Validation", "Business Models")
- **Core Question**: What problem or question does this address?
- **Key Insight**: The main takeaway or answer
- **Example**: Real-world example or case study mentioned
Keep entries concise (1-2 sentences each). Aim for 6-10 rows covering the lecture's main topics.
#### 2. **Framework Comparison**
If the lecture presents any frameworks or models, create a simple comparison table:
- **Framework Name**: What it's called
- **When to Use**: Best application scenario
- **Key Strength**: What it does well
- **Key Limitation**: Where it falls short
If no frameworks are explicitly compared, skip this component.
#### 3. **Action Items**
List the top 3-5 practical actions entrepreneurs should take based on the lecture:
- **Action**: What to do
- **Why**: The benefit or purpose
- **How to Start**: First concrete step
#### 4. **Problem-Solution Visual**
Identify the central entrepreneurial challenge discussed and its proposed solution:
- **Problem** (Purple box 💜): The main obstacle or challenge entrepreneurs face
- **Solution** (Green box 💚): The recommended approach or methodology
- Connect with an arrow showing the transformation
#### 5. **Key Tradeoff**
Identify one major decision or tradeoff entrepreneurs must navigate:
- Show as a balance or choice between two options
- Include what you gain and what you sacrifice with each choice
### Step 2: Create the Integrated Poster
Design an SVG poster (1200x900px recommended) with these sections:
```
+--------------------------------------------------+
| LECTURE TITLE & SPEAKER |
+--------------------------------------------------+
| |
| KEY CONCEPTS Q&A | PROBLEM→SOLUTION |
| [Table with 6-10 rows] | [Visual diagram] |
| | |
+--------------------------|----------------------+
| |
| ACTION ITEMS | KEY TRADEOFF |
| [List of 3-5 items] | [Balance visual] |
| | |
+--------------------------------------------------+
| 3 KEY TAKEAWAYS (Footer) |

```
## Simplified Symbol Guide
Use these symbols to highlight different types of content:

### Sample Tradeoff:
```
Fast Launch ←→ Perfect Product

## Final Checklist
Before delivering the poster, ensure:
- [ ] All five components are clearly visible
- [ ] Text is readable at normal zoom (14pt minimum)
- [ ] Visual hierarchy guides the eye through content
- [ ] Key takeaways are immediately apparent
- [ ] Examples make concepts concrete
- [ ] Design is clean and professional
## Delivery Format
Provide the final poster as an SVG file that includes:
1. All extracted content organized visually
2. Clear section divisions
3. Appropriate use of color and typography
4. A footer with 3 key takeaways from the entire lecture
The poster should work as a standalone reference that someone could understand without having attended the lecture.
