      Entrepreneurship in Emerging Economies

      Activities and Societies: The primary objective of this course is to think creatively about entrepreneurial interventions in emerging economies. Emerging economies face a different set of challenges than advanced economies. Lack of developed infrastructure and institutions, which we often take for granted in advanced economies, hinder efficient business operations. In this course, we refer to these absences of market intermediaries as institutional voids.
