HSM - 688P Topics in Health Systems Management: Entrepreneurship in Action
This is a practical class – essentially a lab. Its goal is to help student teams develop new business ideas through established entrepreneurship concepts and approaches. This is achieved by using a business model canvas to diagram value creation for the customers and validate hypotheses to create a repeatable, scalable business model. Students will use the customer development approach to test hypotheses by getting out of the building and off campus and running experiments weekly to test assumptions about product features, pricing, distribution, etc. Based on the results of these weekly experiments, teams will rapidly iterate their product to build something people actually want and make significant changes to their business model hypotheses before spending millions of dollars and years of work. The class will culminate in writing and presenting a business pitch. Topics covered include the entrepreneurial mindset, the pursuit of ideas, opportunity recognition, creativity and innovation, design thinking, ecosystems to support new ventures (incubators, accelerators), legal, marketing, branding and financial tools related to the start-up and entrepreneurial development process. Offered: spring. Retake Counts for Credit: No. Credit(s): 2
