MGMT 614 NEW VENTURE CREATION
Building on the process model of entrepreneurial venture-creation, this course focuses on the pre-startup, startup, and early growth of new business ventures. The new ventures creation phase involves identifying opportunities, matching business ideas and opportunities with aspiring entrepreneurs, and identifying funding venues. Subject matter of the course is organized around the following themes:seeking and evaluating opportunities for new ventures; leveraging resources to convert those opportunities into concrete business propositions; and developing appropriate entry and exit strategies. Taking an applied approach, each student will work with a local entrepreneur or small business and develop a detailed startup financial plan for a new venture that has the potential to secure a prospective investor.
