What can we learn from illegitimate and controversial kinds of entrepreneurship? Especially when these businesses benefit society and can even make up 40% of a country's gross domestic product? In this episode, Nikolaus Franke, the Academic Director of the Professional MBA Entrepreneurship & Innovation, talks about these businesses. Later on in this episode, we take a close look at the cooperation between real-world businesses and his institute, the E&I Institute. One of the organization's yearly highlights is the upcoming E&I Touchdown that will take place on June 15. All listeners are welcome to join.
