He has been teaching Banking and Finance at Bocconi University in Milan for years and has published several books on corporate financing. In this course offered through Coursera, Caselli provides real-world examples of industry models and investment strategies, as well as calculation formulas for company valuation. The course includes interviews with industry experts, who provide useful and actionable tips for making the most of your private equity and venture capital investments.
