Re­search at the Chair of En­tre­pren­eur­ship

The Chair of Entrepreneurship analyses issues on a theoretically sound empirical basis and makes contributions both to basic research and to entrepreneurial practice. In addition to examining the foundations of start-up research, the following focal points are pursued:

 

  • Spin-offs from science
  • Start-up motivation, intention and behaviour
  • Business model development and start-up enabling
  • Corporate entrepreneurship / intrapreneurship
  • Impact / Social Entrepreneurship
  • International Entrepreneurship
  • International human resources management
  • Challenges of corporate management at the interface between efficiency, added value and sustainability

"With garage33, we have a unique field laboratory that enables research into issues relevant to start-ups using empirical data from real start-up projects."

Field labor­at­ory gar­age33

In analogy to evidence-based medicine, management decisions should not only be made on the basis of personal experience and selective assumptions (e.g. imitating the behaviour of competitors), but should also take into account the cumulative empirical research findings in order to make the best possible recommendations for action.
