A glimpse into our industry events

The conceptual starting point is the slogan ā€˜Leadership, Research, Innovation’. Innovation lies at the heart of this. The aim here is to focus on those technologies and their application in a business context where their adaptation is of particular significance to the sector.

The content dictated by the field of innovation also influences the specialisation in Leadership and Management, which primarily addresses management challenges arising from technological upheavals. Here, students are expected to understand the organisational, economic and legal implications and to be equipped to respond to them using modern management tools. Specific requirements arise here, for example, in the areas of intellectual property protection and compliance.

The third focus area – research – is intended, on the one hand, to meet the academic requirements of a Master’s-level programme; above all, however, it aims to equip students with the necessary skills to navigate the highly dynamic processes of change – both technological and cultural – that are likely to shape the corporate environment in the future.

Read the announcement here regarding the launch of the new extra occupational Master’s programme in Media Production for the 2025/26 winter semester.

Büttnerstraße 10 in Leipzig is, in fact, a historic site of innovation and debate. Udo Steinberg, a graduate of Mittweida University of Applied Sciences and one of the most important figures in the early days of football, met here with other football pioneers to make history. It was in what was then the Marianengarten restaurant at Büttnerstraße 10 that the German Football Association (DFB) was founded around 125 years ago.
