THE CONCEPT

This Summer School represents a unique learning experience for anyone involved in advanced doctoral work in the area of technology and innovation management. It provides an exclusive opportunity for doctoral students to receive feedback on their work form leading academics and editors of renowned journals in the field of R&D and Innovation Management.

This year’s Summer School follows a different layout compared to the other European Doctoral Summer Schools in the years before:
Each doctoral student has to submit a full paper with the potential to be published in a high-tier journal. The students will be selected based on their full paper for the targeted journal and will have the opportunity to work with the tutors on their paper to make it ready for publication. In addition, they will receive valuable feedback from the tutors on their research work, future career opportunities in academia and beyond, and experience the start-up flair of Berlin and beyond.
