BUSE 680 Entrepreneurship for Creatives Capstone: Planning and Pitching New Ventures

In this hands-on course, students learn how to clearly and convincingly state the “why” of their new venture. Beginning with the creation of a business plan, students construct a pitch deck that clearly, thoughtfully, and persuasively articulates why investors should support their start-up. Through the exploration of case studies, students learn about potential successes and failures in the planning and launch of creative ventures, as well as the factors investors use to judge a new venture’s value. The course culminates with students conducting a formal pitch to a panel of professional entrepreneurs.
