As part of the EU-Horizon project PRIMED, the Chair for Entrepreneurship and Innovative Business Models (Prof. Dr. Stefanie Bröring) at Ruhr University Bochum is conducting research on circular business models in the bioeconomy.

To support this research, we kindly invite every bioeconomy expert to participate in our study. You will be asked to sort and evaluate a series of statements related to relevant components of business models in the circular bioeconomy. These statements should be assessed based on your personal perceptions and interpretations – here are no right or wrong answers.

The exact instructions for taking part in the sorting and rating process can be found below, please read them carefully.

Please answer all required questions. Please log in by clicking on “Proceed to project” and then enter your e-mail address and an individual password – save your login details so that you can use them for all subsequent tasks.

NOTE: You do not have to do all tasks. If you want to choose, please perform task 2 at first! Afterwards you can continue with task 1.
