Contrary to traditional belief, entrepreneurism is not just about making money, nor is it merely about starting up a venture or owning a small business. Rather, entrepreneurism is a way of life, applicable to all human economic activities.
Living on a planet with finite resources, humanity is sustainable only if there is constant pursuit of innovation and creativity, not just for personal gain, but also for the common good.
The road to entrepreneurship is often a treacherous one filled with unexpected detours, roadblocks, and dead ends. There are lots of sleepless nights, plans that do not work out, funding that does not come through, and customers that never materialize.
It can be so challenging to launch a business that it may make you wonder why anyone willingly sets out on such a path.
The purpose of this module is to understand entrepreneurism and enable the learner to take an idea to market in a purposeful and thoughtful manner.
