Experiential learning is part of the core mission at the Grenon School of Business.

In my Business Strategy course, students partnered with a local entrepreneur to develop a start-up. Students identified target markets, conducted product concept testing and created a marketing plan for HoverHandle, LLC, whose product is a steerable handle for hoverboards.
