About

My name is Timo and I have been doing my doctorate at HHL Leipzig Graduate School of Management on the topic of service innovation since 2021. What fascinates me about this topic is not only the diversity but also the adaptability of the topic to different organizations. During my Bachelor's and Master's studies, I was already able to gain experience in the service environment and worked for Fraunhofer IIS in the Innovation & Transformation department and at Ernst & Young in the Financial Statemen Audit department, among others. I was also able to gain experience abroad in Spain and Hong Kong and, from a personal point of view, I love traveling and getting to know new cultures.
