Abstract
This course introduces students to the concept and practical application of the business model as a strategic and managerial tool. It delves deep into its analytical uses (assessing existing businesses) and design uses (creating new businesses). Central to both is the role of marketing. Strategic marketing bridges the perspectives of customers, competitors, and the company, offering vital insights into the business modeling process. Students will master the business model framework to holistically analyze organizations, with an emphasis on refining their value propositions, positioning, and market-entry strategies. They'll also cultivate the skills needed to thrive as both entrepreneurs and intrapreneurs. Our teaching approach combines theory-rich lectures peppered with illustrative case studies and hands-on group sessions centered on case method teaching, enabling students to apply learned concepts and tools through collaborative and individual tasks.
