What is the Strategic Foresight in Industrial course about?

Your firm operates at the intersection of taste, health, and microbial science, where product lifecycle compression and regulatory scrutiny demand faster, more adaptive strategy. Traditional planning lags behind R&D velocity, creating execution gaps, resource friction, and missed windows for market leadership. Without a structured way to anticipate shifts, even award-winning innovation can underperform commercially.
