Interests
for the future
- I
would like to continue work with and within different cultures, approach people
and to bring things ahead.
- My
professional interests will stay with interface functions, e.g. technical-commercial
or technical-financial areas, innovation management and new business creation.
- I
hope that the Corporate-Spin-Offs.com
website contributes to the scientific discussion, helps relating experts from
science and practice and raises awareness of the subject.
