Teaching Profile

My teaching is centered on entrepreneurship, innovation, digital transformation, entrepreneurial finance, sustainability, and AI. I place particular emphasis on project-based learning, transparent assessment, accessibility, and the integration of research methods and empirical evidence into class discussion. Across settings, I aim to prepare students not only for exams or final theses, but also for analytical and entrepreneurial decision-making in uncertain environments.
