IMBX-SHU 232 Entrepreneurship Experienced:
The main aim of this course is to probe into the core rationale behind entrepreneurship: taking initiatives to make changes. Lecturing only accounts for less than one-third of the course, and students are expected to exhibit a high level of self-motivation to critically examine established and emerging ideas that have been shaping and transforming the concept and practices of entrepreneurship, as exemplified in specific cases and current practices. Students will thus be prompted to think critically and creatively about how to respond to the complexities of changes.

Fashion is not only a global trillion industry as narrowly defined in terms of apparel footwear jewelry and cosmetics but it has also become a driving force in the greater business world as the concept of fashion branding has spread to enhance such other product areas as eyewear, home products, hotels, automobiles and electronics. This course will teach students to develop effective synergies between strategic and legal perspectives in the growth of a fashion company.
