In the field of innovation economics, numerous renowned national and international conferences have taken place in recent weeks. Ann Hipp presented her research findings at the international DRUID conference in France (13-15.06.24), the 14th summer conference of the European Regional Science Association (GfR) at Leibniz Institute for Economic Research in Halle (04-05.07.24) as well as at the Evolutionary Committee of the Verein für Socialpolitik at TU Ilmenau (04-06.07.24). Her presentations dealt with the mobility of inventors since reunification, who have increasingly migrated from rural to urban areas due to certain personal and social characteristics, as well as the reasons for the declining innovative capacity of East German regions using the example of the microelectronics industry.
Jan Cornelius Peters also took part in the 14th GfR summer conference in Halle, where he moderated a session on economic policy.
