Returning earlier visits from teams of Freiberg University Jens Hӧlscher stayed with colleagues in Saxonia to deepen research collaboration and teaching exchange experience. Freiberg will host a conference as part of the ESRC funded seminar series ‘Access to Finance for SMEs’ www.bournemouth.ac.uk/access-to-finance in January 2016. Jens gave a seminar on publication strategies for early career researchers. In his capacity of Research Professor of the Halle Institute for Economic Research he also finished a paper on 25 years of German Unity on that occasion, which has now been published in ‘Wirtschaftsdienst (Economic Service)’ http://www.wirtschaftsdienst.eu/archiv/autor/jens-hoelscher/ .
