Cases in Global Innovation: South Asia

1 credits · Undergraduate

This course is designed primarily for upper-level undergraduate and graduate students interested in examining the major challenges and success factors entrepreneurs and innovators face in conducting business, globalizing a company product or service, or investing in South Asia. Over the duration of this course, students will examine case studies of foreign companies seeking to start a new venture, introduce a new product or service to the South Asian market, or South Asian companies seeking to adapt a U.S or western business model. The course will put this into the larger context of the political, economic, and social climate in several South Asian countries and explore the constraints to doing business, as well as the policy changes that have allowed for a more conducive business environment.
