Five years at the University of Bremen

In April 2014, Jutta Günther, together with Iciar Dominguez Lacasa, Björn Jindra, and Philipp Marek from the Leibniz Institute for Economic Research in Halle (IWH), joined the Faculty of Business Studies and Economics at the University of Bremen.

Together with Marcel Lange (IT specialist), we joined forces to continue and expand our research in empirical innovation and structural economics as well as to teach and to support young researchers’ careers. Thereupon, further members joined the team: Mahmood Shubbak, Maria Kristalova, and Tobias Wendler represent the “first generation” of PhD candidates. Since then, the group has grown continuously based on numerous activities in research and teaching. Today, we work as an international team of about 20 members. Our passion is scientific research, mostly in the fields of transition, structural change, and innovation as well as internationalization, digitization, and ecological sustainability. The working group is part of the Institute for Economic Research and Policy (ierp) as well as the Research Group "Diginomics – Digitizstion, Economy & Society" within the Faculty of Business Studies and Economics. We enjoy being part of a large international network of colleagues and friends with whom we cooperate intensively in research and teaching.

We thank the University of Bremen and the Faculty of Business Studies and Economics for having us!
