Dr. Christoph Peters, Project Manager, Postdoctoral Researcher, University of St.Gallen, University of Kassel

When:  Wednesday, July 11, 4:30pm - 5:15pm (UTC+01:00) Amsterdam, Berlin, Bern, Rome, Stockholm, Vienna   (10:30 AM ET)

Background:
Dr. Christoph Peters is a project manager and postdoctoral researcher at the Institute of Information Management (IWI-HSG) at the University of St.Gallen in Switzerland and the Interdisciplinary Research Center for Information System Design (ITeG) at the University of Kassel in Germany. Christoph studied Business Informatics at the University of Mannheim, Germany (M.Sc.-equivalent) and at the Queensland University of Technology in Brisbane, Australia. Christoph holds a doctoral degree from the University of Kassel, Germany (Dr. rer. pol.). He coordinates several research projects and heads a research group of eight doctoral candidates.
His research focuses on service innovation, the systematic design and management of services and work systems, their digitization and respective business models.

Task Description:
Edu4Inno: An service system for generating new services and corresponding business models” presents an educational service system that enables students to learn about service innovations and service systems from a theoretical background on the one hand and on the other hand, to systematically design new services and corresponding business models. Therefore, partners from practice present their real-world challenge at the beginning of a semester and commit themselves for some interview and interaction time slots. The students work in teams and with the partner while trying to master this challenge by systematically designing new and innovative services as well as corresponding business models. Thereby, each team works out predefined artefacts such as a service model, a functioning prototype, a business model, etc. The elaborated service innovations are pitched in a startup environment in front of the practice partners at the end of the semester. We consider our submission and the overall “Edu4Inno” concept as a highly impactful service innovation that continuously “produces” service innovation competences (for students) and service innovations (for practice). The “Edu4Inno” concept has been implemented several times in the last 3 years at two universities leading to an enthusiastic and innovative atmosphere among students as well as to award-winning service innovations.

During this talk Dr. Christoph will present Edu4Inno and key results from its last years' implementations.
