Entrepreneurship Research - How I Built This
This was an individual project where we chose an entrepreneur to research that shared their story on "How I Built This". I chose Mark Cuban because I knew he owned a famous NBA basketball team.
7 X 7 - 7 Slides in 7 Minutes
For this project we worked in duos to choose a product we use often. We chose the iPhone and researched what it is, how it is advertised, how it gained popularity, etc. We created 7 slides and presented it in 7 minutes.
World Series of Innovation
(WSI)
This was a project I did with my buddies Jason and Fenton where we had to invent something that would address the Sustainable Consumption and Development Goal. Our group name we came up with was the Humanitarians and I was in charge of the Market Opportunity of our product. We also created a short one minute commercial on our product; The Crap Car.
S.W.O.T. Analysis
For this assignment I was had to choose a snack or food I loved and make it better. I chose Cinnamon Toast Crunch and did a SWOT analysis then created the better version, Cinnamon Toast Munch. We pitched our new product in front of class.
Corporate Social Responsibility
In pairs, Aymen and I chose the company Microsoft and researched their values and how they helped socially, environmentally, and gave back to the community. This project was difficult because I carried the team but Aymen was there for moral support. We presented in front of class.
Ted Talk Tuesdays
This project was most definitely the most stressful for me personally because it was difficult for me to choose a topic I could talk passionately about. I ended up presenting a talk about my small reselling business I created. With little to no preparation in a limited amount of time I was forced to improvise on the spot, but the audience seemed to have enjoyed my talk.
Business Proposal
This was this biggest project of the year where we put everything we learned in this class into creating a product or service that could be beneficial. My partner and I created a child monitoring software. We pitched our product in front of a handful of USF students in hopes to advance to the next level to compete for money.
Blog For Business Proposal
For the final project of the spring semester I wrote a blog review on the product/service we created in the assignment above. I wrote on how our service benefits from our product. I learned how to use subheadings and SEO's. This was no presented.
