In this project, students will explore concepts most relevant to innovation-driven enterprises: those ventures that have potential for high revenue growth and that are increasingly important in today’s knowledge economy. They will assess the opportunities associated with disrupting existing market environments, and the internal challenges of building new organizational capabilities. Through these lenses, students will scrutinize your organization context and upon completion of the project, you will receive a detailed report and presentation.
