Creativity, innovation and culture are important factors for the competiveness of not only companies, but also of regions and nations, particularly as we move from goods and service economies to “experience” economies. This course explores the links between these factors – culture, business, society and politics – by analyzing business cases, trends in society, and political initiatives.
Field Studies
- Immersion in the Experience Economy
- Students will visit various cultural centers, events, and attractions. Past visits have included concerts at VEGA, Copenhagen's main concert venue and night club, and Copenhagen's largest shopping mall.
