We push our students to go deeperPresidio MBA courses culminate in the Integrative Capstone Venture Plan. Taken in the final semester, students craft a venture plan to launch a sustainable business idea. The purpose is to plan, start or build an ethical, sustainable and profitable venture for an existing or new business, NGO or government agency. Students complete a strategic business plan that addresses management, finances, risk analysis, operations and marketing plans, as well as an action plan for turning their ideas into reality. While some students work on these ventures after they graduate, for others the course is solid preparation for whatever career goals they end up pursuing.
