Economics, Trade and Business Processes

Successful companies are not only the result of technical innovations. Efficient production planning and logistics (e.g. virtual factory), clever business models (e.g. e-commerce), market-oriented innovation management as well as international financing instruments are also crucial factors for success.

The Institute for Trade and Innovation (IfTI) is a key contributor in this research area at Hochschule Offenburg.
