About the Course

This course covers in the chronological order each defining step of an entrepreneurial project. It begins with very personal considerations related to getting to better know yourself better so as to decide if you are ready for the multiple challenges of entrepreneurship. It then deals with creativity in order to provide the right set of tools to find an idea with the right potential to disrupt an existing business. We then discuss how to gather a founding team, how to raise money to initiate the project, and how to deal with day to day cash management. Later in the course, we discuss the art of selling, focusing on business to business sales, and how to measure the product launch phase using cohort analysis. Later on, we discuss the challenges of HR in an entrepreneurial environment, and of recruiting at a point where nobody knows your company. We then describe very practical techniques to initiate the international development of a small company. Last, we cover the exit strategy topic....

It was an insightful course, but it could have been even better if there were more international examples, rather than only from France. Even if there were no international references, at least the course could have highlighted the regional and contextual differences when it comes to entrepreneurship in other parts of the world.

Though we knew Entrepreneurship is a long journey and lots of things to plan and take care; This 4 weeks course helps to get some key topics for me to review my product idea with some valuable insights and make me revisit some key priorities like intrinsic program, sales strategy , Founding team, when to plan for Exit -Buy out instead of sellinh like all key topics taught in very simple and easy way and i liked the interviews especially with real founders approach and their struggles and sales and brand are unique includs jobfact -market fit timing.

Thanks again Coursera & HEC Paris !

This program allows you to cover the key steps you will encounter as an entrepreneur/intrapreneur. It allows you to better identify them and to understand them. I would just say that sometimes it would need to go deeper on certain subjects as it's a general approach of all the subjects. However it is a real guidance to an entrepreneurial journey. Then, you just have to find other contents to sharpen your knowledge at each step your company is in ! Thanks Ambroise and thanks to the entrepreneurs who gave testimonials !

Very interesting course, it addresses globally all the important issues from the beginning of the creation of a company to get bought (having acquisition offers). It helps entrepreneurs and entrepreneurs to avoid rookie mistakes and to have an idea about what skills one needs to develop to succeed.

I have enjoyed this course though I felt that it was short.

Definitely, I recommend it.

Course laid out simple and relatable. Can easily understand and apply concepts by learning from people who actually experienced and applied the concepts and principles. Ambrose is engaging and not preachy at all. One downside though was I have to repeat my submissions again because the system "lost it" extending the period of the course.

Overall, good job!

The course material is great, but the peer review system has significant flaws. It might take forever to get the peer review done, and coursera support becomes needed. That is not really seamless, took me more energy to get the grades than to actually understand and follow the pace of the content
