Finance for Entrepreneurs

This course focuses on startup financing. We cover finance tools and concepts that are essential to an entrepreneur when creating a financing strategy. We go over the techniques for setting up and evaluating a financial model and cover the principles of sound financial management. We study fundraising strategy and the entrepreneurial finance industry: the sources of startup funding (e.g. Venture Capital), motivations of entrepreneurs and investors, and negotiations and contracts between them. We also explore latest developments in entrepreneurial finance (e.g. crowdfunding).
