Corporate entrepreneurship (also called intrapreneurship/internal corporate venturing/corporate innovation) refers to the development and implementation of new ideas within established companies. It is an attempt to inculcate the mindset and skills of smaller firms within larger entities. Globally, with the proliferation and oftenmeteoric rise of startups, corporate entrepreneurship is increasingly recognised as necessary to protect and even enhance a firm's competitive position. This programme provides an opportunity to understand how novel opportunities are pursued within firm boundaries, design a corporate venturing process, and nurture an organisational appetite for bold experimentation.
