Prof. Dr. Andreas Ziltener

BESCHREIBUNG

As a senior researcher at the Swiss Institute for Entrepreneurship SIFE and as a professor of entrepreneurial management at the University of Applied Sciences HTW Chur I focus my research on innovation management in SMEs, where I have successfully developed an R&D cooperation model which allows SMEs to better collaborate with research institutions and thus outsource specific parts of their activities along the innovation process. Based on these model I focus my work mostly on local and regional projects in the field of cleantech and sustainable business models. I am dupty coordinator of the R&D consortia (WTT CHost) with currently four technology clusters. There I try to develop a holistic and sustainable innovation process model. I am also a co-founder of a software engineering company which provides software solutions that allow users to communicate and collaborate location-independent, so hopefully they travel less.
