The capstone for the specialization will provide a learning experience that integrates across all the courses within it. It will involve analysis of a situation concerning a new enterprise – a venture of one’s own or within a larger organization – to develop the current business model and compare against alternative business models so as to identify potential opportunities and challenges.
In this module you will become familiar with the Capstone course, your instructor, your classmates, and our learning environment. You will also use course concepts to complete a review quiz related to the two Innovation courses in the specialization; Strategic Innovation: Building and Sustaining Innovative Organizations, and Strategic Innovation: Innovation at the Frontier: An Exploration of Cutting-Edge Topics.
