service businesses. It offers students a combination of topicssuch as Entrepreneurship & Entrepreneurial
Skills, Lean Start-Up, Value Proposition Design and Emerging Markets.
The courseis complementary in terms of contents and goals to "Business ans Strategic Models in Tourism" and
"Innovation in Tourism". Beyond these, the present course introduces students to the specific fundamentals
