Entrepreneurship through acquisition (ETA) is the exciting career path where business professionals buy and grow existing small businesses. For individuals with business skills and a desire to make a meaningful impact, this path is significantly less risky than starting new businesses around unproven product or service ideas. The course will introduce ETA and cover how to search for, value, finance, and grow small business acquisitions. Invited speakers include entrepreneurs and acquisition professionals.
This class is cross listed as an undergrad/grad level course and meets Mondays and Wednesdays at 6 pm to 7:20 pm. No prior background in finance is required.
