The seminar, which is organized annually by the Chair of Microeconomics at the Friedrich Schiller University of Jena, serves to promote young scientists and this year brought together more than 30 participants from Bremen, Jena and Ilmenau.

From the working group "Innovation and Structural Change", Jessica Birkholz and Katharina Friz presented their cumulative dissertations, which are nearly completed. Furthermore, Philip Kerner, Enno Kohlisch, Jarina Kühn, Toby Law, Matheus Leusin, Mariia Shkolnykova, Julian Thiele, Daniel Töbelmann, and Tobias Wendler were involved with paper presentations.

We thank Uwe Cantner and his team for the organization and the excellent program.
