We do not do science just for science's sake: To transfer our latest finding from paper to practice is an important part of our work. This helps organizations to apply latest findings from IO-psychology in their everyday business and fosters innovation. At the same time, we learn a lot from Münster's ambitious founders and entrepreneurs; they inspire us in our own research. We are proud to introduce our partners in science, business, and practice to you.
Student Start-up Monitor 2024
The Student Start-up Monitor (SSM) enters its second round: We are pleased to announce the release of the Student Start-up Monitor (SSM) 2024, which has been led by the Division Psychology of Entrepreneurship.
2350 students from all over Germany participated in the SSM, including more than 270 founders.
The SSM 2024 provides up-to-date insights into the student entrepreneurial ecosystem to better understand and improve the conditions and challenges for future entrepreneurs at German universities. The monitor was implemented by Max Weldert and Henrik Heinemann, under the leadership of Philipp Schäpers and in cooperation with the REACH-Euregio Start-up Center.
We are excited to announce that the Student Start-Up Monitor 2022 has been released: The Student Start-Up Monitor surveyed over 3000 students on the landscape of student founders in Germany. Under the leadership of Anja Overwien, the monitor enhances understanding of the student entrepreneurship ecosystem: A central driving force for students who start businesses is self-realization, and universities are a major talent pool. Approximately one-third of student ventures are started by women, yet too often, government subsidies are not utilized - these are just some of the intriguing findings from the monitor. Our colleagues Henrik Heinemann and Max Weldert are involved as co-authors on the monitor, and we are thrilled about these exciting insights from the field.
The REACH - EUREGIO Start-up Center is the new start-up center at the University of Münster. It is the first point of contact for all interested in starting a business and becoming an entrepreneur.
