The Emerging Industry Business and Marketing Scholarship
Summary
The consumer drone industry is still in its infancy. The innovation is astounding, and it’s an amazing time to be involved.
But it’s also a race to the top for many companies in the industry. Social media has ushered in a new era of transparency. This has spawned companies that are more value-driven than ever.
Many companies are capitalizing on this to move ahead of their less consumer-focused competitors.
This scholarship gives students the opportunity to explore what they would do to capture market share in an emerging industry that’s in a rapid phase of growth.
