Research Interests:

Within my research activities, I am engaged in the issues of entrepreneurship and innovations, the role thereof in regional innovation systems, and the economic transformation of regions. These issues are currently being studied within the context of adaptation to the challenge arising from exponential technologies and societal challenges, such as sustainability and the increasing age average of inhabitants. I have been working at the FSE UJEP since 2009, from 2013 to 2017 I was the chief of the Department of Economics. Currently, I am the head of the faculty’s Centre for Cooperation with Firms. In 2015-2019, I was the leader of the Innovation Centre of the Ústí Region. I am a member of an expert team of the Ministry of Regional Development for the RE: START programme, I coordinate a regional Digital Health platform and a referential point for active and healthy ageing (EIP AHA). I also take part in the creation of strategic documents from my position as a member of various regional – and other – panels.
