The Summer School is a valuable experience for anyone involved in doctoral work in the area of technology and innovation management. It provides a unique opportunity for doctoral students in technology management to learn from presentations of leading academics in the field and to meet colleagues with similar research interests. During the intensive one-week course, the participating students have the opportunity to discuss their research programs with senior professors and with other PhD students in interactive workshops, and to meet the editors of the journals R&D Management, Creativity and Innovation Management, Journal of Workplace Learning and Zeitschrift fuer Betriebswirtschaft. A company visit is also scheduled to a firm leading in the area of technology and product innovation.
The European Doctoral Summer School was first organised by Professor Klaus Brockhoff at the University of Kiel in 1991. Since then the School has been held in different locations: Manchester Business School in the UK; Katholieke Universiteit Leuven in Belgium, University of Twente, the Netherlands; Politecnico di Milano, Italy; WHU Otto Beisheim Graduate school of Management, Vallendar, Germany. Since 2000, the European Doctoral Summer School in Technology Management has been organised jointly with EIASM (see www.eiasm.be). The number of alumni from the Summer School now exceeds 300. A considerable number of Summer School alumni and tutors are still in touch with each other and play active roles in the field of Technology Management.
The Summer School kicks off with a tutoring session by Abbie Griffin, directly focussing on this’ years theme: Innovation Interfaces. Abbie will take an NPD process perspective to the theme, looking at the 3 major transitions in NPD - from invention to project acceptance, from acceptance to implementation, and from implementation to launch, and reporting on her recent research on transitions from invention into project implementation. Two more sessions within the interfaces theme will address interfaces with marketing througout innovation processes, and university-industry interfaces. On the Sunday we introduce a more informal session, with ample attention for PhD thesis development and publication issues, and opportunities to laisie with 3 journal editors. Halfway through the Summerschool an excersion is planned to a high tech venture in the twente area. The second half of the week includes sessions on open innovation, global R&D management and Intellectual Property management and innovation Performance. During the SummerSchool, student presentations and discussions will be organised around clusters of topics based on students' own research areas, whereby students each will have a full hour to present and discuss their work to the group and one or more tutors.
