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.

project (incl. research question, method used/planned, theoretical
