Moving into the second module, ¿Market Oriented Innovation¿, the students will enter into the challenging problems of balancing technological opportunities with user needs and wants. It will also address the role of user-knowledge in technological adaptation and provide the students abilities to connect levels of user-knowledge to market-communication strategies.
