      I wrote my master thesis in collaboration with AVL. The thesis is centered around the creation of a stage gate process which supports business model innovation at AVL. During my master thesis I conducted multiple interviews with entrepreneurs and innovation leaders. Their expertise, learnings and ideas formed the basis of the stage gate process. Summing up the designed process is a guideline to to successfully conduct business model innovation.
