For instance, we will look at the process of recognizing and enacting market opportunities and the importance of segmenting your customers when designing initial market solutions. Both aspects come accompanied by a short case study that challenges students to apply the knowledge they learn and arrive at a comprehensive understanding of the issues at hand.
