The Mid-Career Consortium (MCC) is designed to meet the needs of those scholars who are midway through their academic careers (e.g., post- tenure). More specifically, the objective of the MCC is to help individuals who have achieved tenure, or significant career advancement, to develop a strategy and give guidance for the next stages of their careers. To achieve this, leading entrepreneurship scholars will provide practical advice and mentorship in various regards (e.g., research, teaching, outreach, networks, etc.). The MCC adopts a highly interactive and personalized approach (e.g., through small group discussions, personalized Q&A, etc.). For instance, the attendees will gather at roundtables with senior scholars, based on their main interests, and will engage in intensive discussions to receive otherwise hard-to-obtain feedback and input. Potential topics include, but are not limited to, career opportunities and directions, maximizing research output, branching out to other scholarship and education options, or service and engagement opportunities. To register for the consortium, please send an email to philipp.sieger@unibe.ch where you ideally also indicate the main questions you would like to discuss.
