Business Models in a changing environment

Education facts

Code: IEAD12

The aim of the course is to provide students with increased knowledge and understanding of how business models can be used to analyse problems and challenges, with a focus on value creation in industrial companies and other organisations. Throughout the course, concepts and theories related to business models and value creation are addressed, with a particular emphasis on digitalisation, innovation, and sustainability. Common challenges associated with business models are discussed, specifically those linked to digitalisation, innovation, and sustainability. Concrete tools that facilitate the understanding and development of business models are presented and applied to various types of organisations. By the end of the course, students are expected to have a clearer understanding of how the business models of heir own organisation can be strengthened and developed. The course requires active participation in shaping the course content through engagement in seminar discussions and other learning activities. It also presupposes independent work, continuous reading, and active, reflective participation.
