Academic research
In research, our North Star is the question:
How can firms and other organizations manage sustainable technologies to make their implementation economically attractive?
More specific questions that we have been studying include, but are not limited to, the following examples.
- How can companies implement sustainable business models?
- What business model archetypes emerge in specific sectors during the sustainability transition (e.g., smart cities; electricity)?
- How can companies leverage digital technologies in sustainable business models?
- How can companies scale innovations that employ sustainable technologies? What is scaling in the first place?
- How can firms manage stakeholder engagement? How do stakeholder interests influence innovation processes and outcomes?
- How can multiple organizations jointly create sustainable value propositions (e.g., public-private collaboration)?
Our findings on questions like these are published in top-tier academic journals according to various rankings. Here is a selection of outlets that have featured our work.
- Entrepreneurship Theory & Practice
- IEEE Transactions on Engineering Management
- International Journal of Management Reviews
- Long Range Planning
- Journal of Product Innovation Management
