Michael Goldberg Email & Phone Number

Michael Goldberg is a Professor, Department of Design and Innovation at Case Western Reserve University. Colleagues describe him as "Michael Goldberg is on the teaching staff for Coursera's "Beyond Silicon Valley" video lectures and suggested readings. He has made this experience interesting and informative. This online course has been my most valued for many reasons. Although the course does not offer a certificate given upon completion of lectures, Michael Goldberg still enriched the students with the ability to take what he discusses in the videos and apply them to the business of start-ups. Walking away with an invaluable understanding of his teachings is the only thing one needs to feel satisfied when taking this course. In every module, he also provides thought-provoking Q&A's for the students enrolled. All of this makes it very easy to gain some insight and inspiration for entrepreneurship study. What Michael does exceptionally well is provide practical and relatable situations by interviewing those who embody leadership positions in the business world of start-ups. He also implements the "Cleveland Case Study" which is used observe progress in the city and determine whether entrepreneurship improvement is in full-swing during that time. I owe it to Michael Goldberg for sparking my interest in entrepreneurship and helping me understand how the field works in times of change. " and "I was a student in professor Goldberg's class, Trends in Asian Venture Capitalism, in which we had various skype calls with entrepreneurs from around the world. Coming into this class, I knew very little about angel investing and venture capitalism, and even less about business trends in foreign countries. Interacting with entrepreneurs from around the world, as well as professor Goldberg himself, has increased my knowledge about this topic greatly. Not only do I have a better understanding of entrepreneurship on an international level, but I now understand the barriers that entrepreneurs must hurdle in order to be successful. In addition, I now know how to effectively write a business memo, as he assigned various projects in which we needed to do this. Michael Goldberg is an excellent professor, as I learned a great deal about a complicated topic in such a short period of time, and I recommend him as a professor for any class related to business and entrepreneurship."
