The lecture Corporate Entrepreneurship provides students with an understanding of the various possibilities and approaches for established companies to act entrepreneurially in order to maintain or regain flexibility and innovative capability. These entrepreneurial activities are analyzed and related to corporate reality. In addition, the course introduces the topic of change management, because even established companies have to deal intensively with entrepreneurial activities and changes.

We will also be hosting exciting guest lectures. The two winners of the REACH Euregio-Chair 2023/2024, Dr. Anna Weber and Tanja Lendzion, will share their practical experiences. Further background information on the honorary chair can be found here: REACH Euregio-Chair
