Managing Emerging Technologies
Social & Sustainable Ventures in the Bay Area
The course focuses on the strategic dynamics
of technology-intensive industries. Technology
industries often have distinctive features which
challenge conventional wisdom regarding economic, market, and organizational dynamics.
Case studies will be drawn from technologies
and industries such as electric vehicles, video
games, telecommunications, wind turbines,
medical equipment, software, industrial
technologies, and television. Discussions will
occur both in a traditional format as well as in
a student-led seminar format where different
teams present different cases, in order to
expose students to as many new technologies
and issues as possible.
This course is a hands-on exploration of the
nature of entrepreneurial and intrapreneurial
ventures that focus on generating a tangible
positive impact on people and the planet while
being profitable. In order to meet these objectives, we need to cover diverse perspectives
and will conduct a learning and networking
journey for a set of structured, insight-yielding
conversations with leaders in startups, corporations, venture capital firms, impact-investors,
and incubators. Faculty, staff, and students will
contribute equally to the selection of ventures to ensure the content meets students’
interests.
Each alumni member is entitled to take one
free elective course per year (please note: a
small fee for course materials does apply) at a
Hult campus. Electives are a fantastic way to
catch up with all the latest business trends and
develop new skills and knowledge. It is also a
great opportunity to re-visit Hult campuses and
meet the latest generation of Hult students.
Registration for 2013 electives closed on
April 12th. Don’t miss out in 2014, get ahead
of the game by updating your details on the

“ arketing is constantly
M
evolving. I took Professor
Vannoni’s electives to stay
up to date with the latest
developments. I was not
disappointed as he managed,
like no other professor, to
bring current ideas and
trends into the classroom.
His ability to get everybody
involved and to participate
was also excellent.”
