Description
An innovation is a new concept. A successful entrepreneur develops that new concept into a product, service, or organization. This skill set requires an understanding of innovation development and making innovations operational. Innovation and entrepreneurship are processes occurring in the context of social and cultural organizations. The history of entrepreneurship and the nature of innovation and how it is expressed socially, politically, and economically will be explored. Networking, communication, and relationship-building skills will also be addressed. (3 s.h.)
