High-Tech Growth Management: Turning a business plan into a solid company


Theme & Programme

The integrated programme on 'High-Tech Growth Management' confronts topics and issues related to the management of growth within high-tech start-ups that have been successfully launched and are now working hard to develop a sustainable position in the market. This programme provides guiding frameworks and insights that are relevant to handling problems frequently encountered during such a trajectory. Themes include the development of a sustainable business model, internationalisation, research & development, marketing and sales, and organisation & human resource management issues.

The first module sketches an overall picture, after which each of the following modules will focus on one particular subject area relevant to high-tech growth firms. All modules are scheduled during the late afternoon (4 - 7 pm). The modules will combine an overview of current practice ('state of the art') with lessons from the field ('company testimonials').
