Created in October 2023, the SEIM’s aim is to foster knowledge about the Eurasian socio-economic area that is relevant to science, Swiss companies and governments, as well as students in the ‘Business in Eurasia’ Master’s programme. <\/p>\n

To this end, the SEIM develops and maintains relations with universities in the Eurasian region, in Azerbaijan, South Korea and Kazakhstan. It also aims to promote the academic mobility of teachers and students, to develop joint research projects and to (co-)organise summer academies in Switzerland and in Eurasian countries.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n\n

Regional and urban development<\/h2>\n <\/div>\n \n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/div>\n\n
\n
\n\n \n\n

This field focuses on the ways territories develop beyond the paradigm of competitiveness through production, to address the issues of people’s mobility through the residential, presential and experiential economy.<\/p>\n\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Production of the built environment and property markets <\/h2>\n <\/div>\n \n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/div>\n\n
\n
\n\n \n\n

This field addresses the role of real estate and, more broadly, the built environment, which have become very important sectors for contemporary economies, by placing it within regional economic specialisations (industrial, tourist, residential or metropolitan) as well within the financial circuits of real estate development.<\/p>\n\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The financialisation of the economy and society<\/h2>\n <\/div>\n \n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/div>\n\n
\n
\n\n \n\n

The financialisation process of contemporary economies raises questions not only about how market finance guides and\/or constrains the development of territories, but also about how social reproduction models (retirement, health and education) are designed.<\/p>\n\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Climate transition and sustainability <\/h2>\n <\/div>\n \n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/div>\n\n

\n
\n\n \n\n

Change is constant in the connected world in which we live. We focus on developing organisational and managerial capabilities to successfully navigate change and uncertainty. We look at the challenges that companies and their managers face and how they can overcome these challenges.<\/p>\n\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n
\n

Partnerships for sustainability <\/h2>\n <\/div>\n \n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/div>\n\n
\n
\n\n \n\n

Companies can tackle some of the biggest challenges by working with other organisations. We look at how partners contribute to sustainability with partnerships, how they work together to develop and promote new technologies, practices and models.<\/p>\n\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

\n

Higher education, research, and innovation policies<\/h2>\n <\/div>\n \n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/div>\n\n
\n
\n\n \n\n

As these policies have a major impact on the knowledge economy and society, they are analysed at both state and organisational levels (universities, innovation parks, companies, etc<\/p>\n\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Emphasis is placed on quality management and resilience within public organisations.<\/p>\n\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
