The Chair of Information Management, led by Professor Dr. Lutz M. Kolbe, perceives information management and information technology as crucial for sustainable business success. In this pursuit, the chair cooperates with various business and research partners, most prominently in third-party funded research projects. The chair’s current research topics follow an integrated end-to-end perspective of information management (IM) with a focus on smart mobility & transportation, digital healthcare, as well as data governance. We see IM as the defining force behind all digital transformation endeavors.
