Description | Banking and brokerages have long been at the forefront of info tech as evidenced by “bleeding edge” data mining/analytics, algorithmic trading, chat-bots and High Frequency Trading. Are new, small Fintechs simply being absorbed by the giants? If so, are they truly the “disruptors” they claim to be? This course places an emphasis on successful entrepreneurs and will enable students to explore their key characteristics and evaluate how many traits are innate and how much is learned. Can anyone become a successful entrepreneur? Do entrepreneurs ever stop “inventing”? |
