Our Guest Speakers –
Bridging the gap between business and academia
Exchanging scientific and business know-how and experiences is an essential component of both our research and teaching activities. We strive to follow up questions of managerial relevance in our research and apply these scientific insights in our teaching.
Corporate guest speakers make a considerable contribution to achieving this target. If you are interested in getting involved in our guest speaker program, please get in touch with us!
