Course Description
Course information provided by the 2025-2026 Catalog.
Focused on developing the next generation of clean energy, climate tech, and sustainability-oriented startup leaders, this course empowers PhD and MBA candidates from across Cornell's colleges to dive into hands-on, innovation-driven startup creation. This workshop course leverages PhD participants' research expertise and thesis subjects to shape innovative business model hypotheses. Collaborative, cross-disciplinary teams, inclusive of researchers, cultivate their 'entrepreneurial judgment' by strategically testing these hypotheses to mitigate business model risks. Seasoned entrepreneurs, investors, and faculty provide ongoing feedback to refine insights and set team priorities. Armed with essential tools, training, and deeper entrepreneurial judgment, attendees are prepared to spearhead their own startups or lead in the flourishing green tech sector. Enrollment is limited to participants in the Green Technology Innovation Fellowship with instructor permission.
