An old phrase in business is "Build it and they will come". If heard at all today it will be ironically, as entrepreneurs too often make things that nobody really wants. Cryptocurrency became a trillion-dollar industry without anyone being able to name a clear use for it beyond illicit transactions. In this second course we take-up the research outputs perviously generated and apply to them strategic planning to include the most effective analytical tools and stress tests to challenge and improve business models. Then we will review the digital marketing landscape to align the given startup with it's most effective channels of communication for business and consumer users.
