Objective

*"Science Meet" is a collaboration tool that helps people develop ideas while working with others all over the world.

Audience

*"Science Meet" will target people between the ages of 18 and 30. We say this because these individuals are beginning to identify what they are planning on doing in the future. They have fresh minds, and may have awesome ideas.
*"Science Meet" will mostly target people who want to create startups. 
*"Science Meet" could be an application one uses everyday, if they are in need for an idea, or joining a Start Up.

Experience

*A user on "Science Meet" gains a lot from using this application. For example, the user gains a chance to meet new people, people who are very much interested in their ideas and thoughts. This can develop future friendships and partnerships. The application MVP will have nothing special. Meaning no animations or special effects. We are trying to bring people together to help develop awesome things, by doing this we are trying to convey simplicity as we do it. Not too much content on the application means easy use of the application.
