Once again, the Chair of Industrial Management had the pleasure to welcome Dr. Daniel Kiel, Innovation Manager at Schaeffler and Alumini of the Chair of Prof. Voigt, for a guest lecture on the topic of innovation management at Schaeffler. Schaeffler, founded in 1982 in Herzogenaurach is an important manufacturer of rolling element bearings for automotive, aerospace, and industrial uses.
