Abstract

In the last decades of globalization and the internet boom, business research has become established. Not only with big corporations, but also with company founders or small and medium-sized enterprises. It is not a “nice to have” but has become essential in today's business. Just two decades ago a lot of information was difficult and expensive to get. Today, digitalization and the internet are a rich source of information. What are typical questions? What sources of information get used? How has business research changed in recent decades? What are current developments?
