GROUP FINAL PROJECT IN ESIC

The program in Spain culminates in the entrepreneurial business plan, which forms the primary focus of your IMBA. The project involves 10 credits within the IMBA in ESIC required for completion. 

This project is a group-based work to be carried out as a team, consisting of between 3-5 members, designed to develop professional research skills applied to a real business idea proposed by the students, as well as the skills necessary to propose suggestions for the company as consultants.  The aim is for participants to demonstrate not only academic achievements but also the improvement of personal and professional skills throughout the project's development, as well as show your IMBA program outcomes under an entrepreneurial approach supported by the ESIC Entrepreneurship Department.  

Your team will build a strategic business plan to provide the company with solutions and recommendations for success. In doing so, your team will meticulously research the market to ensure you understand industry trends and can understand and predict consumer behavior to lead the business idea in the right direction.  Your team will identify the changes across different market sectors and how those trends affect the ability to reach those target markets and provide valuable suggestions to the business proposed on how to move forward in a manner that generates revenue and branding for them.
