    In this project the subject of Industrial Design from the bachelor’s degree in Industrial Technologies and Economic Analysis of the ETSEIB is reviewed considering the contents and the teaching and evaluating methods. To acquire a great level and teach the subject with great quality, this project has been developed in order to grant that some of the best methods are used to teach and evaluate the students. The contents have also been reviewed to certify that a similar structure of contents is being followed the same way as some of the more relevant engineering schools. As this subject is part of the bachelor’s degree in Industrial Technologies and Economic Analysis, some of the subjects of the bachelor’s degree in Industrial Technologies, which is another degree from the ETSEIB, are used to compare and conclude the methods that could be used to benefit the subject. This has been done since these subjects have been used as a background to develop the contents and the organization of the Industrial Design subject. Research on some of the most relevant engineering schools in the world and in similar subjects such as Graphical Expression or Computer Aided Design has been done. This has determined the differences between the relevant and prestigious schools and the subjects of Graphical Expression or CAD. Once these different methods have been identified, they are considered to be applied to the organization of the subject, as a proposal, in order to enhance its quality and its reputation. To define which universities are better and more adequate for this project, some crucial facts have been used to reduce the research to a more specific group of engineering schools. The idea behind this project is to be able to clarify and help achieving a greater quality in the subject by reviewing some of the most relevant industrial design schools worldwide to apply some of the ways that they use to achieve such quality and reputation

    This paper examines the typical attributes of startups, extensively studying their main characteristics. The analysis shows that most startups need more historical data and financial information to forecast future trends. Moreover, they stand out for companies with operating losses and high operational risk. Nevertheless, on the other hand, they are ventures with high potential growth and upside. Startups heavily rely on equity financing as opposed to traditional debt financing. This thesis also shows numerous examples and references, the shortcomings of some traditional valuation methods, and analyses the quality of alternative non-traditional methods. The case study extensively studies the company and industry of Bumble Inc., Showing that the Online Dating industry is very competitive and depends highly on marketing and selling expenditures. However, Bumble, the second most significant player worldwide, is well positioned in the market, using a disruptive methodology in its networking app. The main risks that the company faces are competitive risks, privacy and security risk, and reputational risk. Lastly, the case study also assesses Bumble Inc.'s share price using the valuation methods examined in the first part of the paper. While most valuation methods produce a range of values in line with the market, some non-traditional valuation methods could be more accurate due to the substantial size of Bumble Inc. compared to most startups. The outcome of the case study values Bumble Inc. between 20to20 to 25 per share, implying that the company may be undervalued at the moment, with a current share price of $17.
