Please make sure that you understand the instructions.. Please I need this by Thursday……

                                                    “THE TEMPLATE IS ATTACHED”

                                                               OBJECTIVE

  • Identify and analyze a company within the entertainment and media industries that went out of business
  • Conduct research using the library databases EBSCOHost and Nexis Uni
  • Research a company dossier

                                                               OVERVIEW

In recent decades advances in information and technology, as well as changes in consumer behavior, have posed serious challenges to traditional business models in the entertainment and media industries. History has shown us that when companies fail to adapt and to find new, sustainable business models, the death of their business is inevitable. As we’ve learned this week, this is a business concept known as “Adapt or Die.” 

For our first assignment, you’ll research an entertainment or media company that went out of business due to its failure to innovate.  As an emerging industry leader, think about how their missteps can help inform the decisions you make and risks you take as you grow in your career. 

Week 1’s Lesson module provides resources to help you complete this assignment. 

                                                         INSTRUCTIONS

Fill out the template (found under “Downloads” below) about a company that went out of business in the last 10 years.
