This course will draw on articles, case studies, and class discussions to develop a perspective on current technology-enabled business model innovation. We will study this trend towards ecosystem competition across several industries and develop an understanding of this important technology-enabled change including AI that is impacting every industry. Students interested in entrepreneurship, consulting, innovation, digital technology, operations, and other functional roles will find this course useful.
