Programmes
This programme is for entrepreneurs in early-stage startups who are looking for frameworks to manage and scale their ventures. The discussions will center around 6 pillars of startup success – product and customer experience, entrepreneurial finance, branding and marketing, control systems, business design, and people and culture. The case-method pedagogy at IIMA will place you in the shoes of startup founders who navigate the complexities of the market, business models and people management to find opportunities to grow their ventures.

The programme focuses on addressing finance and marketing-related challenges in early-stage startups. New ventures typically start with limitations in resources, networks, and prior knowledge on market opportunities. These limitations introduce significant ‘unknowns’ to their growth strategy. Thus, conventional tools of financial and marketing analyses are rendered ineffective. The programme will introduce participants to emergent business models, critical analysis of these models and innovative marketing approaches for new ventures in digital and non-digital domains. In the process, they will also develop an ability to analyze firms in various industries.
