Entrepreneurial Finance/Financ · 3 credits · Fall 2026
About this course
This course explores finance from an entrepreneur seeking financing for a new venture or early stage startup. The course will develop and discuss the unique and specialized nature of venture finance. Following the life-cycle of venture firms from the initial idea to the final exit, the course develops and discusses the mechanisms of financing, incentive structure, and other related concepts and questions that are more specific and unique in each stage. Major topics include: making financial projections for startups, assessing how much money a venture requires, understanding different financing sources, and locating and negotiating debt and equity financing. As time allows, we will also cover financial analysis and cash management for entrepreneurial ventures, turnarounds, acquisitions, and initial public offerings
