Dr. Hana Fehrenbach is a Senior Researcher at the Institute of Entrepreneurship, Technology Management and Innovation (EnTechnon) at KIT. She was previously a Margarete von Wrangell Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Freiburg, and a recipient of the Elsa Neumann Scholarship of the State of Berlin for her doctorate at the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin. Her academic experience includes research stays at the University College London (UCL), University of Ottawa and Ghent University. Hana received her M.A. and B.A. (Honours) at Queen's University, Canada.  

Hana’s research focuses on organizing for collaboration, which may be transnational, strategic or cross-sectoral. She explores the role of artificial intelligence in shaping new forms of organizing through AI-driven cross-sector partnerships in emerging ecosystems. She is particularly interested in how organizations come together across boundaries to create, adapt, or resist change over time using a process research approach.
