Upcoming Aurora opportunities

 

Join us for our sixth of a series of virtual Aurora ‘In conversation with...’ style events, where we will hear from various expert speakers across Aurora institutions, with their perspectives about R&I issues and challenges that are currently topical and relevant.

The sixth session on Monday, 09 September 2024 at 12 p.m. CET is titled ‘Sustainable Performance Measurement in Entrepreneurship’. It will take place virtually through Zoom.

Dr. Anne-Karen Hueske, academic co-lead in social entrepreneurship and innovation at Copenhagen Business School, will talk about performance measurement related to sustainability. Entrepreneurship is seen as an important response to address societal challenges. But what does research tell us if and how social, environmental and environmental entrepreneurship contribute? Measures are classified by the elements of the theory of change measures and three dimension of sustainability.

Pre-registration required via this Zoom link.

This one hour, informal ‘In conversation with’ style session is aimed at Aurora colleagues and their networks interested in the exchange on current topics of innovation promotion and technology transfer. It will include a Q&A.

 

This workshop for PhD students and PostDocs will be organised by Prof. Dr. Kai Hockerts (CBS) and colleagues from different AURORA universities who work together in a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Action (MSCA) Doctoral Network (DN). In this seizmic DN on social entrepreneurship, 15 PhD students and one postdoc coordinator will jointly research the scaling of social enterprises, and further reshape the landscape in social entrepreneurship education.
