Welcome to the Institute of Innovation Marketing

Our team conducts research in the fields of marketing, innovation management, and entrepreneurship. We focus on the empirical extraction of real-world insights that contribute to both scientific theory and business practice.
Increasingly, our attention is directed towards the major trends shaping the future, particularly in the thriving fields of sustainability and artificial intelligence (AI). We collaborate closely with international research institutions and industry partners to explore these dynamic opportunities.
In our courses, students engage with up-to-date scientific content, while we align our teaching with the real-world challenges facing the economy and society. By incorporating modern teaching methods and project-based learning, we equip our students with practical knowledge rooted in scientific rigor.

I had the pleasure of taking the courses "Intercultural Management and Communication", "B2B Marketing" and the cross-university module "INTIE" with Prof. Lüthje. With innovative teaching methods, numerous case studies and exciting guest lectures, the content is taught in a meaningful way. The enthusiasm for the subject and teaching is visible in every lecture and makes for entertaining and inspiring events.
