The Team Global Professorship for Disruptive Innovation will play a key role in the ESMT Master in Innovation and Entrepreneurship. The professorship should be filled by a highly experienced person with a passion for science and teaching. An affinity for technology and practical skills is required. The professorship is expected to be filled by summer 2024. 

“Through the development and use of new technologies, we can create unprecedented prosperity that is also sustainable and clean. Germany has a long history of such innovations, and even today there are many outstanding scientists and engineers in Germany who continue this tradition,” says Lukasz Gadowski. “The Team Global Chair for Disruptive Innovation will empower students in a practical way to work with science and technology to turn such innovations into reality. In addition, scientific research will be conducted on disruptive innovation.” 

“The new Team Global Professorship for Disruptive Innovation will be a great asset for us. It is another strong sign of the close network ESMT has with the Berlin startup scene. At the same time, it gives us the opportunity to establish additional, even stronger connections, from which ESMT students in particular will benefit,” says Jörg Rocholl, president of ESMT.
