In November, Prof. Dr. Stefanie Bröring’s Chair for Entrepreneurship and Innovative Business Models welcomed Junior Professor Dr. Daniela Gimenez Jimenez from TU Dortmund University for a guest lecture in the “Foundations of Entrepreneurship” module.

Her lecture, “Opportunity Recognition in Entrepreneurship: How the Institutional Context Influences Entrepreneurial Activities”, provided valuable insights into how different contexts – countries, ecosystems and families – influence the entrepreneurial aspirations of women and men.

She explored how these factors impact the development, survival, growth and sustainability of ventures, stimulating thought-provoking discussions. Her expertise provided our students with a deeper understanding of the crucial role that institutional frameworks play in entrepreneurship.

We sincerely thank Junior Professor Dr. Daniela Gimenez Jimenez for sharing her inspiring research and passion with us!
