With our start-up, our goal is to strengthen the implementation of climate research in business practice. To achieve this, we provide education, research, and advice on the topic of the circular economy.<\/p>\n
In my bachelor\u2019s program, I took the International Business Administration major and the formerly available Socioeconomics focus at WU Vienna, because I found the combination of these two perspectives inspiring.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
I\u2019m therefore particularly pleased that WU has now introduced a new interdisciplinary major focusing on the economy, the environment, and politics \u2013 after all, networked thinking is now more important than ever.<\/p>\n
The climate crisis is probably the most complex problem we have ever faced as a society, especially because the economic, political, environmental, and social realms can no longer be seen as separate from each other. Instead, they must be approached as interconnected dimensions. As a start-up founder, bringing these perspectives together is particularly important to me. If you would like to take responsibility and help shape our future (as an entrepreneur), the Economy, Environment, Politics major might just be the perfect choice for you.<\/p>\n
