To achieve competitive advantage, innovation-driven and growth-oriented entrepreneurs must balance experimentation and learning with the range and application of a strategy.

Designed for innovation-driven and growth-oriented startups, this entrepreneurship course builds on an emerging body of work that moves beyond a one-size-fits-all approach to startups and instead focuses on the key choices that founders face as they start and scale their business.
