MGT9402 – Global Entrepreneurship

What is this course all about?

Focus is on business entry into the international marketplace with special attention on identifying the barriers to entry. From a global entrepreneurship perspective, students examine the role of international trade research in identifying opportunities, the role of federal institutions in assisting entrepreneurs to identify threats and reduce the risk of failure. In addition, students learn the process of importing and exporting goods, the legal aspects of international trade, the growing role of CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility), the nature of trade financing when buying or selling internationally and the role of e-commerce in developing a global business presence. Students are exposed both to sources of information on the international marketplace and to the basic terminology being used in that marketplace.
