Projects

Digital assistance systems are intended to instruct people to operate production facilities in industrial production, even without prior knowledge. In this interdisciplinary project, the researchers are investigating how well step-by-step guidance that relies exclusively on assistance systems works and where further qualification is necessary.

The project investigates how the economic and social disruptions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic will affect the digitalisation of the working environment in the short and medium term, and whether they will even act as a catalyst for a digitalisation push.

This project investigates the reorganisation of production networks in China and Germany.

The project "Political Economy of Venture Capital in Europe" examines the emergence and impact of venture capital as a form of startup-financing in Europe.
