Academic entrepreneurship at the heart of Tilburg University’s history
01st October 2020On October 9, 2020, Sylvester Eijffinger, Professor in Financial Economics, will say farewell to Tilburg University after more than 33 years. Throughout these years, Professor Eijffinger was deeply involved in the University as well as being, to many a journalist, the beacon that shed light on economic processes. In his farewell address, he will look back on these three decades and he will share his thoughts on the developments in research, education, and valorization he observed in this period. He believes Tilburg University is defined by academic entrepreneurship – a distinctness it owes to founding father Martinus Cobbenhagen, an academic entrepreneur before the term existed.
