The Entrepreneurial Journey course delivers the tools, skills and judgment of a bootstrap entrepreneur. The course takes students through evaluating an opportunity, to launching a business, growing a business, and finally to harvesting the profits.
At each stage of the journey, students stand in the shoes of an entrepreneur and make tough decisions. They will be squeezed by the demands of customers on one side (sales) and the need to make and deliver their product cheaply (operations) on the other.
