Methodology
Students will work in groups to imitate actual startups and decide on a product. If the group exists from the previous course, students can choose to work in the same group to continue with the same business idea.
The two assessments will be based on creating a GTM Strategy plan and expected to incorporate knowledge obtained from each course. In addition, depending on the class structure, guest speakers may be invited to share their experience with the GTM strategy.
