The Chair for Entrepreneurship and Innovative Business Models was represented twice at this year’s VHB TIE Conference in Weimar.

Dr. Michael Rennings presented the chair’s latest research findings on complementary innovation ecosystems. In his presentation, he showed how these ecosystems arise, how their architectures develop, and how actors assume leadership roles within the ecosystems. In his presentation, Lev Kalishchuk showed how horizontal knowledge and technology transfer succeeds and how it is perceived by different stakeholders.

The VHB TIE Conference in Weimar was a complete success for the Chair! The conference provided an inspiring platform for exchange with colleagues from the Association of University Professors of Business Administration (VHB), Scientific Commission Technology, Innovation, and Entrepreneurship (TIE). We return with new ideas and valuable contacts and look forward to incorporating the insights gained into our future research and teaching projects.
