Research Conference: Mannheim Castle Days 2023

A special highlight in July was the Mannheim Castle Days 2023: Our chair attended the conference especially for young researchers from the world of family firm research and entrepreneurship at Mannheim University Castle. 

With 14 discussion contributions on current research projects of the participants as well as a keynote by Professor Block on the topic of "AI in Family Firm and Entrepreneurship Research", the result was an interdisciplinary picture and a lively exchange that moved all participants forward. Networking opportunities and a wonderful social program were not neglected - the idea of promoting scientific friendship and friendly community with this event was a success all around.

It was a special pleasure for Giuliano Ciavarella and Lena Erber to present their research projects in the field of "Hype in Entrepreneurial Financing" and "Digital Startups in M&A" and to discuss them with the interested audience. 

A big thank you goes to the organizers: Jan-Philipp Ahrens, Annegret Hauer, Andrew Isaak and Dennis Steininger.
