Scientific knowledge grows continuously but also experiences certain alignments over time. For example, early cultures had the believe of a flat earth while latest research has a spherical earth model. Also in social science and business management, from time to time certain concepts that have even been the predominant paradigm are challenged by new observations and models. Consequently, certain controversies emerge and build the base for advancing theory and managerial practice. With this lecture, we put ourselves in the middle of heated debates for informed academics and practitioners of the day after tomorrow.

The lecture targets several controversies in the domain of technology strategy and innovation management. By the classical academic method and the novel problem based learning format of a structured discussion, a given controversy is scrutinized. On selected topics, students will discuss a dispute and gain a thorough understanding. Specifically, based on a brief introduction of a motion, a affirmative constructive as well as a negative constructive is presented by two different student groups. Each presentation is followed by a response of the other group and questions from the class. Topics range from latest theories and concepts for value capture, to the importance of operating within a global marketplace, to cutting edge approaches for innovation stimulation and technology management. Consequently, this lecture deepens the knowledge in technology strategy and innovation management (TIM), enables a critical thinking and thought leadership.

Important note: This course is part of an 6 ECTS module consisting of the three courses "Startup Engineering", "Startup Engineering Project" and "Entrepreneurship Management", which have to be taken together in one semester.

Startups are temporary, team-based organizations, which can form both within and outside of established companies, to pursue one central objective: taking a new venture idea to market by designing a business model that can be scaled to a full-grown company. In this course, students will form startup teams around self-selected ideas and run through the process just like real startups would do in the first three months of intensive work. Startup Engineering takes an incremental and iterative approach, in that it favors variety and alternatives over one detailed, linear five-year business plan to reach steady state operations. From a problem solving and systems thinking perspective, student teams create different possible versions of a new venture and alternative hypotheses about value creation for customers and value capture vis-à-vis competitors. To test critical hypotheses early on, student teams engage in an evidence-based, experimental trial-and-error learning process that measures real progress.
Upon completion of this course, students will be able to:
· Apply a modern innovation toolkit relevant in both the corporate & startup world
· Analyze given business opportunities in terms of its constituent elements
· Design new business models by gathering and combining relevant ideas, facts and information 
· Evaluate business opportunities and derive judgment about next steps & decisions
Course language is English, but participants can decide to give their graded presentations in German. Students are invited to apply to this course module already with a startup idea and/ or team, but this is not a requirement! We will form teams and ideas in the beginning of the course. Class meetings have alternate intervals of lecture inputs, teamwork, mentoring, and peer feedback. Attendance is mandatory for at least 80% of class time due to large proportion of teamwork sessions.
Student teams give three presentations and submit them with backup analyses. Grading scheme:
· Startup discovery presentation after 5 weeks: 30%
· Startup validation presentation after 10 weeks: 30%
· Final startup pitches after 13 weeks: 40%

Risiken sind in der heutigen Geschäftswelt allgegenwärtig. Daher stellt die Fähigkeit Risiken zu managen, einen der wichtigsten Aspekte dar, der erfolgreiche Unternehmer von anderen unterscheidet. Es existieren verschiedene Risikokategorien wie Kredit-, Länder-, Markt-, Liquiditäts-, operationelle, Supply Chain- oder Reputationsrisiken. Unternehmen sind dabei anfällig für die verschiedensten Risiken. Was den Umgang mit Risiken noch komplexer und herausfordernder gestaltet ist, dass sich Risiken häufig der direkten Kontrolle durch das Unternehmen entziehen, denn sie können ihren Ursprung auch außerhalb der Unternehmensgrenzen haben. Dennoch kann der damit verbundene (negative) Einfluss auf das Unternehmen erheblich sein. Das Bewusstsein sowie die Fachkenntnis, verschiedene Risiken zu managen, gewinnen daher in Zukunft weiter an Bedeutung.

Im Rahmen der Vorlesung werden unter anderem folgende Themen behandelt:

• Ziele und rechtliche Grundlagen des Risikomanagements
• Risiken und ihre Auswirkungen
• Risikoarten (Klassifikation)
• Risikomanagement und Personal
• Prozessschritte des Risikomanagements und ihre Instrumente
• Methoden der Risikobeurteilung
• Implementierung eines ganzheitlichen Risikomanagement
• Management spezifischer Risiken
