In May 2021, I attended the NWK 2020/2021 conference hosted by the Ernst-Abbe-Hochschule Jena (EAH) in Jena, Germany. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the conference in 2020 was cancelled and my paper “Entrepreneurship Policy Discourse and its Network of Actors in Hamburg, Germany” was now presented in a remote format during the 2021 event. Abstract: Even though policy makers often associate entrepreneurship, especially startups and their alleged innovative high-growth potential, to job creation and economic growth, this link is subject […]

Recently, my thesis from 2016 on Hamburg’s entrepreneurial ecosystem and the regional public policy agenda to foster entrepreneurship was published as an ebook. It is now available on all major platforms, such as Amazon, Apple iBooks, Google Play, Tolino etc. Since this process took a long time, it is not my most recent publication, but still a good reference point about the regional entrepreneurial ecosystem in Hamburg at the time. Abstract: Entrepreneurship, more specifically the formation of tech startups, is […]

Again I went to Matsumi some time ago, my absolute favourite Sushi restaurant in Hamburg, Germany. It is located in the Collonaden near to the Jungfernstieg at the inner Alster river and I highly recommend it for the most amazing sushi. I don’t know any better place. We got seats at the sushi bar and started out with some very nice side dishes and a sake kava temaki (grilled salmon skin hand roll), which is my absolute favourite hand roll at Matsumi. They […]
On December 9 2015 epic recording artist Tower of Power from Oakland, California, was showing off their awesome tower groove and world’s best horn section at the Fabrik in Hamburg. As was mentioned repeatedly during the show, the band is celebrating its 48th year of existence, providing the world with urban soul music… I have seen them quite often and highly recommend them as one the most energetic live bands I have ever seen. Just check out Youtube… This time, I […]
Starting today, the Apple Watch can be preordered online and is available for try-on-sessions in local retail stores with an appointment. Appointments can be made on online or via the Apple Store iOS App since 9:01 AM this morning (April 10 2015). Apparently things are not as bad as expected, since I got a slot at 11 AM and the store was far from crowded. Looks like the demand is not that crazy after all. I really like the way they chose […]
A great example of convincing visual storytelling and data journalism. This is an impressive data driven story about airbnb accommodations in Berlin and its correlations with the local real estate market, rents and affordable housing.
Die Mieten in Berlin steigen. Das hat viele Gründe. »Sharing Economy« Portale wie Airbnb locken Touristen und sind ein lohnenswertes Geschäft. Tragen sie eine Mitschuld an der Verknappung von bezahlbarem Wohnraum? Die Diskussion ist in vollem Gange und die Meinungen sind polarisiert. Doch wer hat Recht? Ein Blick auf die Daten verrät mehr.
It is a student project at FH Potsdam within the course “From Reading to Exploring” at the design faculty. The students composed a great article with lots of interactions, high information density and context around facts like local hotspots, average rents, networks and correlations with the hotel industry etc.
