This course is core to the Master of Engineering in Technology Management & Entrepreneurship program and engages students in the discovery and validation of opportunities. Throughout this course, students working in teams will focus on iterative testing of concepts with the aid of contemporary design tools and methods, aiming to identify ideas that are viable, feasible, and desirable. Emphasis is placed on applying Agile principles to systematically test and refine hypotheses, through an iterative cycle of feedback and refinement. Students will learn to conduct primary and secondary research to assess desirability and market viability, develop financial models, and explore technical feasibility. The course culminates in the crafting of a comprehensive venture development plan and the delivery of a formal pitch. Through weekly workshops that incorporate case studies and hands-on exercises, students will translate theoretical knowledge into practical skills, developing a basis for the subsequent phase of prototype development in TME 6026.
