Course Description

This course is designed to help young entrepreneurs make significant progress on a well thought out business idea. The idea should be reasonably novel (expect competition) but most importantly, that you are passionate about moving the business forward. We focus on building, refining, and strengthening the idea by completing a comprehensive business model, prototyping, and applying for funding. Weekly case studies help students understand the challenge of starting and running a business. Join this class if you have an idea ready to go on day one! This course will be delivered via Compass 2g. This course meets the first 8 weeks of the semester.
