David Feierabend

Member of the Extended Executive Board for Entrepreneurship + Transfer and Academic Director of the Center for Entrepreneurship

As Professor of Innovation and Sustainability and Presidential Board Representative for Entrepreneurship + Transfer at Reutlingen University, supporting start-ups is particularly important to me. Thanks to my own entrepreneurial experience, I know how exciting and challenging it can be to set up a company.

What motivates me

Start-ups are incredibly important for our society. They bring fresh ideas, drive innovation and create new jobs. In this way, founders ensure that we remain competitive. That is why I am passionate about supporting young founders, sharing my own experiences and promoting their innovative projects. Together, we can make a difference and shape the future.

Dr. Lyubomyr Matsekh

Project manager 4InnoPipe2

After living and working in Asia for several years, Dr. Lyubomyr is back in Europe, where in addition to his academic work, he helps companies to bring people together and find new opportunities for their businesses (see LinkedIn for references). In his academic roles, he teaches leadership, sustainability and social entrepreneurship. He also supports the Center for Entrepreneurship in innovation management and helps to expand its network of international partners. His research activities are tightly linked to his teaching and project work. In the field of social entrepreneurship, he examines the role of digital innovation in social change and explores the impact of measurement matrices for social startups. His second area of research focus is the gamification and study of engagement methods used in project- and challenge-based entrepreneurship education. In addition, he pursues research topics in the fields of theoretical linguistics and artificial intelligence, which are related to his PhD thesis. Based on the interdisciplinary approach used in his doctoral research, he strives to distinguish the algorithms of concept formation and evolution in human cognition, as well as the working principles of the coherent conceptual network that humans create. Furthermore, his research is directed towards the role of perceptual systems and cognitive processes in learning, e.g. the time-efficiency correlation in memorisation and unaware learning.

What motivates me

My motivation comes from contemplating ways of creating a space where change is possible and fun.
