Overview

The Entrepreneurship Strategy - From Ideation to Exit course offered by Coursera in partnership with HEC Paris begins with personal reflection aimed at better self‑understanding in order to assess readiness for the multiple challenges of entrepreneurship.

Key facts

The course then focuses on creativity, providing tools to identify ideas with the potential to disrupt existing businesses. It covers how to form a founding team, raise initial funding, and manage day‑to‑day cash flow. Later modules address the art of selling, with an emphasis on business‑to‑business sales, as well as measuring product launches using cohort analysis.

Subsequent sections examine human resources challenges in entrepreneurial settings, including recruiting when a company lacks market recognition. The course also presents practical techniques for initiating international expansion of a small company and concludes with a focus on exit strategies.
