22nd European doctoral summer school on technology management

The Summer School is a valuable experience for anyone involved in doctoral work in the area of technology and innovation management. It provides a unique opportunity for doctoral students in technology management to learn from presentations of leading academics in the field and to meet colleagues with similar research interests. During the intensive one-week course, the participating students have the opportunity to discuss their research programs with senior professors and with other PhD students in interactive workshops, and to meet the editors of the journals R&D Management, Creativity and Innovation Management, Technovation and Zeitschrift fuer Betriebswirtschaft. A company visit is also scheduled to a firm leading in the area of technology and product innovation. The last day of the SummerSchool will be focused on Green Innovation, in collaboration with EITIMDoc.

The European Doctoral Summer School was first organised by Professor Klaus Brockhoff at the University of Kiel in 1991. Since then the School has been held in different locations: Manchester Business School in the UK; Katholieke Universiteit Leuven in Belgium, University of Twente, the Netherlands; Politecnico di Milano, Italy; WHU Otto Beisheim Graduate school of Management, Vallendar, Germany, Scuola Superiore di Sant’Anna, Pisa, Italy, University of Vaasa, Finland, and Sabanci University, Istanbul, Turkey. Since 2000, the European Doctoral Summer School in Technology Management has been organized under the auspices of EIASM (see www.eiasm.be). The number of alumni from the Summer School now exceeds 400. A considerable number of Summer School alumni and tutors are still in touch with each other and play active roles in the field of Technology Management.
