I am an Assistant Professor at the Chair of Organisation, Technology Management, and Entrepreneurship at University of Passau. Further, I am an affiliated Research Fellow both at Max Planck Institute for Innovation and Competition in Munich and Politecnico di Milano, School of Management. My research interests center around the fields of entrepreneurship, innovation management, and organizational strategy, marked by my backgrounds in economics and finance. Previously, I worked amongst others on research projects studying the implications of technological change on entrepreneurial activities, the role of intellectual property in corporate finance, and the effects of policy in shaping firm strategies. I obtained my PhD in economics from Goethe University Frankfurt (summa cum laude). In addition to the above affiliations, I am an adjunct professor and the Academic Coordinator of the Innovation School at the Norwegian School of Economics and I am the scientific advisor of the European Union Intellectual Property Office IP-backed Finance Group.
