In this class, I engaged deeply with the learning outcomes by exploring the process of developing and managing a business. I worked on creating innovative ideas, such as a Digital Wellness App, which involved conducting thorough market research to identify target audiences, analyzing competition, and addressing potential challenges. This was followed by the development of a comprehensive business plan that included financial projections, marketing strategies, and operational frameworks. Additionally, I practiced delivering effective pitch presentations to communicate business ideas to potential investors and stakeholders. Through collaborative projects, I analyzed case studies of both successful and failed ventures, gaining insights into the factors that drive entrepreneurial success. These experiences equipped me with critical thinking skills, creativity, and a strategic approach to entrepreneurship.
