Last year’s winner

“I am honored to thank Emerald, EFMD, and the European Journal of Marketing for picking my dissertation as the winner of the 2011 Emerald/EFMD Outstanding Doctoral Research Award. Receiving this prize in a worldwide competition is a great personal and professional honor that I hardly dared to hope. I have to express my sincere thanks to Bernd Skiera for his guidance, the fun in research, and all the things I learned in the past years in an exciting field. A big hug also to my wife Lena and son Moritz for their great support.”
