Professorship of Business Administration, in particular Social & Sustainable Entrepreneurship

Organisational unit: Professoship

Organisation profile

Social entrepreneurship refers to practices and processes of individuals and organizations that apply a business logic to address population segments that are excluded, marginalized, or suffering. Sustainable entrepreneurship focuses more broadly on the preservation of nature, life support, and community in pursuing opportunities to create positive impact. Sustainable entrepreneurship thus describes the nexus between sustainable development and entrepreneurship. Both social and sustainable entrepreneurship aspire to create viable market solutions and intend to act as change agents who realize and exploit opportunities that address the grand challenges of our time.

The Assistant Professorship for International Social and Sustainable Entrepreneurship places a particular focus on conducting research, develop teaching and support student engagement in the areas of:

  •  Social and sustainable entrepreneurship
  •  Entrepreneurial practices in challenging environments
  •  The role of emotions in entrepreneurship
