What's next in Business Training? In our latest blog post we chart the course for effective policies and necessary research to further use and generate rigorous evidence in the field.
Entrepreneurship is an amazing asset. It accelerates economic growth, promotes innovation, helps advance research and industrial development, develops existing enterprises, and can promote social change. And the good news is that it is not innate; it is an asset that can be taught and encouraged through exposure. The challenge thus lies in finding the most effective way and moment to do so.
After the Winter Research Meeting in November, we’re highlighting the people behind the research - understanding the motivations for their work, the effect their research has on the wider world, and further research questions which have come to light over the course of their research. Part one is with Jean Joohyun Oh of Columbia Business School.
It’s not always easy to find reliable and robust experimental research which we can use to learn what works in different contexts. Therefore, to encourage evidence-based policymaking, we have updated our database and include over 150 Randomised Controlled Trials (RCTs) in the field of innovation, entrepreneurship and growth.
Are you working on an experiment exploring entrepreneurship, business productivity, innovation, the science of science, or related topics? Then read our five reasons why you should apply to present at our Winter Research Meeting on 21 November at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam.
During the Policy and Practice Learning Lab at IGL2019 in Berlin, we hosted a range of workshops and interactive sessions to give policymakers the opportunity to put their learning into action. Henry Sauermann, Associate Professor of Strategy at EMST Berlin, joined a panel to discuss how we understand scientists’ and researchers’ motives to improve research productivity, collboaration, commercialisation and impact.
The data revolution is transforming our economy and society, from the way we shop to the way we date. But what about Research, Innovation and Growth policy? Juan Mateos-Garcia summarises his session from IGL2017.
Last December we co-hosted our winter Research Meeting at Harvard Business School, together with Professors Karim Lakhani and Rembrand Koning. Over 50 researchers were welcomed for a day packed with eight presentations of early-stage, ongoing and completed randomised controlled trials (RCTs).
