Corporate Valuation: from Startups to Giants

Catalog description

This course provides students with the analytical and financial modeling skills needed to value firms ranging from early-stage startups to mature giants. Students will use the material they learn to build and present a comprehensive valuation model for a mature company and will also present their valuations of a range of startups to their venture backers and management teams. There are no prerequisites other than graduate standing (the course will cover the basics of accounting and valuation), but students must be prepared to spend some time outside of class hours to interact with entrepreneurs and venture capitalists, both in-person at Tandon and in other countries over Zoom. | Prerequisites: Graduate Standing.
