List of Publications

The publications concern topics in innovation, intellectual property (IP), and entrepreneurship.

Research on IP takes a company perspective and scrutinizes IP portfolios consisting of both patents and trademarks. Research on entrepreneurship concerns both individuals starting a business as well as young companies that may be VC-backed.
