ENTREPRENEURSHIP: REAL LIFE, DECISION MAKING
MARTIN PASEK
We offer innovative university degrees taught in English by industry leaders from around the world, aimed at giving our students meaningful and creatively satisfying top-level professional futures. We think the future is bright if you make it so.
This course is designed to focus on the real-life strategic and daily decisions entrepreneurs make. It goes beyond the textbook theory to unveil behind the scenes insights into challenges entrepreneurs face when building, scaling, or exiting businesses.
These major decisions can be pivotal, often determining the success or failure of a venture, and/or the success a founder will achieve. Although the course will use examples from a fintech environment, the course teaches students material applicable to businesses across all sectors and all stages of development.
