Over the last years, media entrepreneurship has evolved as a main topic within media management research. Currently, media entrepreneurship covers research topics like innovation, SMEs, family businesses, entrepreneurial orientation, financing entrepreneurs, entrepreneurship-entrepreneurs, female entrepreneurship and the entrepreneurship phenomenon as a whole. Thereby, scholars use a variety of management theories like strategic management (resource-based view, dynamic capabilities, etc.), systems theory, organizational learning or the strategic-fit-concept. The aim of the summer school is to highlight the interrelations between media entrepreneurship and other management theories to help young academics entering this developing research field. The course will cover the main media management theories at the intersection with media entrepreneurship by discussing limitations and possibilities for future research topics. Additionally, several practitioners from the media industry will deepen the understanding of media entrepreneurship by sharing their experience of entrepreneurial activities in practice.

Program Structure:
In each morning session (9-12), different theories are being presented and discussed. After lunch, the doctoral students present their research projects and receive feedback from international senior faculty members and their peers. In the evenings, several networking events will take place to deepen earlier discussions and help building a doctoral community. Jade University expects applications from doctoral students using entrepreneurship theory in a large variety of media research contexts such as innovation, communication, finance, strategic management, organizational learning, etc. Applicants are encouraged to express their interests of special sub-themes in context of entrepreneurship theory, which will be covered within the course.
