Overview
This course is designed to focus on the real-life strategic and daily decisions entrepreneurs make. It goes beyond the textbook theory to unveil behind the scenes insights into challenges entrepreneurs face when building, scaling, or exiting businesses.
These major decisions can be pivotal, often determining the success or failure of a venture, and/or the success a founder will achieve. Although the course will use examples from a fintech environment, the course teaches students material applicable to businesses across all sectors and all stages of development.
Learning highlights
- to understand the theory of entrepreneurship via a pitch deck framework
- to gain insight about what issues, and their associated consequences, can arise in real life
- to make real-life key decisions to combat issues, preferably before they arise
