- 9. LAB TO MARKET Whether you want to launch a startup or advance in an established company, the Rady School’s signature capstone course sequence, Lab to Market, provides the skills you need to excel. Students learn how to source and evaluate marketable ideas, transform ideas into scalable products and services and develop and evaluate business models. An Experience Unlike Other Business Schools LAB TO MARKET starts in the classroom and moves to a project-based setting. Guided by a faculty team and supported by a group of advisors and mentors from the business community, MBA students collaborate and utilize all the knowledge they have gained, developing a business case, a go- to-market strategy and ultimately a business plan. I started my MBA program specifically to take Lab Fellows from just an idea to something that is living and breathing in the marketplace. Julio de Unamuno FlexWeekend MBA ’14 Co-Founder, Lab Fellows
