International student teams design, present, and discuss with a panel of experts the international strategies they have developed for ‘their’ up-and-running startups.
The strategies are built on sound data/information regarding international markets, including the selection and timing decision regarding the entry of the most promising markets and customer segments, as well as a concrete route to market, inclusive of market entry modes and an international marketing program.
