Dr. Mirjam Nicole Streeb Wins €7,500 Stöbich Prize for Entrepreneurship Research
The 2025 Stöbich Entrepreneurship Dissertation Prize was awarded to Dr. Mirjam Nicole Streeb of the University of Bayreuth. The prize, endowed with €7,500, recognizes her research on the role of passion in entrepreneurship. The ceremony took place on October 23, 2025, at the Senate Hall of Braunschweig University of Technology.
Dr. Streeb's work, presented at leading conferences, explores how passion shapes entrepreneurial success. Her findings challenge the notion that entrepreneurial passion is innate, instead showing it can be cultivated. This insight has significant implications for fostering entrepreneurial action within and beyond academia.
The prize aims to bridge the gap between academic insights and real-world business practice, particularly through startups. Representatives from the Stöbich Group, TU Braunschweig, and the regional startup ecosystem emphasized the importance of knowledge transfer and entrepreneurial initiative in their speeches.
The Stöbich Entrepreneurship Dissertation Prize, awarded annually since 2021, recognizes outstanding research in innovative entrepreneurship. Dr. Streeb's win highlights the potential of passion as a cultivable skill for entrepreneurial success. Her work is expected to influence startup initiatives at TU Braunschweig and beyond.
