As unbelievable as it might sound, 94% of Senior Corporate Executives admit that their companies fail to fully understand customer needs. Over 80% of tech startups collapse early, not because of weak engineering or cash shortages, but because they invest time in products the market doesn't want or need.
This specialization employs a tech-driven start-up process to teach you the skills needed to develop successful strategies to launch campaigns and operate programs to achieve financial success in dynamic tech markets. Bridge the gap between abstract product development and profitable sales as you develop a marketing strategy for a real-world technology startup of your choice. Many startups fall into "The Chasm," underestimating customers' desires, leading to their demise. Validate ideas and propel your startup to flourish in today's competitive landscape!
