I am Adjunct Professor of Management at The Penn State Great Valley School of Graduate Professional Studies. I teach BSAD 511 - New Ventures 1 once or twice a year, which is one of the core courses required for the MBA New Ventures degree. It focuses on the pre-emergence and early stages of the venture. I also teach BSAD 522 - New Ventures 2, which is a case study based course about the early growth stage of the venture, emphasizing legal, financial, marketing, and management issues. I also teach BUSAD 575 - High Tech Venture Development, which is (as the name implies) focused on the special aspects of creating and nurturing a high tech business, including innovation and creativity; finding and securing adequate funding; building the team; and assessing and creating marketplace value in the technology. A number of contemporary case studies are an important part of the course. I have also recently taught Entrepreneurship at the undergraduate level at The Philadephia Center.
