CS5594: INNOVATION STRATEGIES (2016-2017)

Last modified: 28 Jun 2018 10:27


Course Overview

This module gives students a unique opportunity to develop entrepreneurial skills, which are required to help in the development of a business-oriented mindset. Even students who have no ambitions to set up a new business, there is a great deal that they can learn about entrepreneurial tools and techniques which would benefit their future career in different employment capacities. From the very beginning, students are asked to identify a novel software-based niche product/service (i.e., a still-to-be-devised, currently non-existing but potentially appealing product/service idea) and to find out how to set up a company which would develop and commercialise such product.
