Dr Reiner Schaefer is a Lecturer in Entrepreneurship within Southampton Bsuiness School in the Department of Strategy, Innovation and Entrepreneurship at the ÃÛÌÒTV.
He belongs to the Centre for Inclusive and Sustainable Entrepreneurship and Innovation (CISEI).
Reiner applies his previous PhD and research in philosophy to core concepts in entrepreneurship research.
Reiner holds both a PhD in Management and a PhD in Philosophy, and much of his research involves applying philosophical perspectives (particularly from the neo-pragmatist tradition) to core concepts in entrepreneurship research.
He is particularly interested in how entrepreneurship scholars can more fruitfully understand venture ideas, entrepreneurial opportunities, and entrepreneurial uncertainty in ways that respect practicing entrepreneurs’ perspectives.
