How innovative are peer communities? Approaches to the empirical assessment of peer innovation
14. January 2022 | 09.30 a.m.– 4 p.m. | Online Expert-Workshop
The virtual expert workshop will bring together innovation researchers for an exchange of ideas regarding the nature of peer innovation, with a focus on the methods of its empirical measurement. The approach developed by researchers at IÖW and TU Berlin in the PeerInnovation project which measures innovation activities in peer communities will be put up for discussion. Bringing together relevant scholars in this field, we hope to further our collective knowledge in measuring peer innovation for better and more sustainable future applications.
