Digital Business - Capstone project (Coursera)

Digital Business - Capstone project (Coursera)

LVMH! Huawei! Energysquare! Three companies in very different industries: luxury goods, telecommunications, energy. Three companies with very different sizes, histories and DNA. And yet, they all share the same objective: to innovate and change, and so to remain or become leaders in their respective markets. The multiple questions that this raises for them warrant your close attention.

The Power of Markets I: The Basics of Supply and Demand and Consumer Behavior (Coursera)

This opening module of the Power of Markets course covers the basic assumptions about market participants made by economists, the concept of opportunity cost, and the key determinants of supply and demand. We will then learn how to use the supply-demand framework to explain and predict market outcomes and to show how government policies affect those market outcomes. We will look at how quantity demanded and supplied respond to their key determinants in quantitative (elasticity) as well as qualitative terms. The last two weeks of the first module will investigate consumer behavior more closely and show how consumer choices are driven by the interplay of preferences and budget constraints.
