EPS 501Entrepreneurial Mindset
This course focuses on how firms (both new and old) can create and capture value from product, process, and service technological innovations. To do so, this course will introduce students to new frameworks for examining both new and old problems related to innovation and technological change. This course consists of a mix between case studies and project courses, with an emphasis on class discussion and debate. While most of the case studies in class will focus on technology-oriented contexts, many of the insights developed during this course will be highly applicable to firms in non high-tech industries as well. A mastery of the tools and frameworks developed in this course will be useful to entrepreneurs responsible for the introduction and implementation of new products or services.

EPS 502Operating Startups
This course provides insight into the key steps needed to build a successful startup by designing a roadmap for developing and maintaining product and services, in a capital-efficient way and for maximum impact. The main idea in this course is learning how to rapidly develop and test ideas by gathering massive amounts of customer and marketplace feedback. Students will learn how to get out of the building and search for the real pain points and unmet needs of customers and how to find a proper solution and establish a suitable business model. Building a startup is not simply building an execution plan for a business model that the entrepreneur thinks will work, but rather, a search for the actual business model itself.
