Clean-tech start-ups are facing different challenges than other businesses. They are not only coming up with new, untested technologies but they are also entering an almost non-existent market they must help shape. An international research team, including Dr Michal Jirásek from ECON MUNI, is looking for ways to measure and strengthen the resilience of clean-tech start-ups.
Dr. Miloš Fišar with his colleagues from the universities in Vienna, Paris and Dallas confirmed that the application of open science principles makes sense. In collaboration with more than seven hundred volunteers, they verified the validity of the results of nearly 500 studies. In May Dr. Fišar received the Masaryk University Rector's Award for Outstanding Research Achievements for Young Scientists under 40 for his research.

People with primary education and people living in households with a net income of less than CZK 30 000 per month are less likely to be vaccinated against covid-19, according to an analysis of data from the Life in a Pandemic survey by researchers from the HEPII institute. Whether people trust experts and government institutions is key to their decision-making. According to the researchers, it is therefore important to build trust consistently.
