What is Technology Entrepreneurship and Innovation?

Arizona State introduces entrepreneurship through technology innovation and the learner’s motivation to change a situation. The modules move from initial orientation to innovation and a proposed direction. It is an exploratory starting point before detailed venture economics or funding work.

What you will learn

• Explain a technology-oriented entrepreneurial opportunity.
• Distinguish an innovation idea from an initial venture plan.
• Connect a proposed change with a problem worth investigating.

Who this suits

Beginners interested in improving an existing situation or exploring a technology venture.

Before you enroll
