Course Description:

This course aims to inspire new business ideas in our emerging and dynamically changing global economy. By considering the recent external shocks on the world economy, such as the Great Recession of 2008-2010, the novel COVID-19 pandemic of 2020-2021, and the global climate crisis, the students are guided not only to understand different business trajectories in different business geographies, such as in the newly emerging markets (i.e., BRIC/MINT countries), but also to discover their potential interests.

The course is based on selected reading materials on the topics as well as the several case studies from different countries in several globally expanding sectors, such as IT, retail chains, manufacturing, logistics, pharmacy, food, and textile.

Emphasis will be on

  1. What makes international different from domestic,
  2. The effects of the social systems within countries on the conduct of global business,
  3. The factors explain international business transactions and the institutions influencing those activities.
  4. The financial exchange systems and institutions that measure and facilitate international transactions. The dynamic interface between countries and companies attempting to conduct foreign business activities. Corporate strategy alternatives for global operations.

Learning Objectives:

Students will be able to

  • understand the basic concepts of business and economics such as trade and investment theory, foreign exchange and its determinants, logic of mergers and acquisitions, global value chains…
  • examine the international institutions and practices that impact international business;
  • focus on the different challenges businesses face when they operate in an international environment;
  • examine the various cultural, political and legal issues that impact international business activity;
  • appreciate the interaction of business and government as they relate to international commerce;
  • develop insight into the management implications of international business strategy and operations.
