About

This Entrepreneurship in Context module from The Open University UK will equip you with an entrepreneurial mindset that helps you cope with the increasingly rapid changes in economy and society. Entrepreneurial initiatives go beyond new venture creation. 

Overview

They also involve the use of entrepreneurial skills and knowledge in established organisations to initiate innovation, change and organisational development. 

The Entrepreneurship in Context module from The Open University UK uses a range of approaches to help you learn about entrepreneurship as well as different forms of entrepreneurial practice, such as corporate, social and family entrepreneurship, and the contexts in which they emerge. As a result, you'll develop a deep understanding of entrepreneurship by connecting your experiences to relevant concepts and research evidence.

It will also be relevant if you are involved in the leadership and governance of strategic change initiatives in your organisation and/or the interaction with entrepreneurial individuals and organisations to address pertinent societal problems.
