I am an assistant professor of industrial dynamics and sustainable business models at Industrial Economics and Management Department.

My research revolves around three topics: diffusion of innovations, industrial transitions and business models. Respectively, I address three main questions in my research:

• How do more sustainable ideas and innovations diffuse in society?
• How do industrial sectors transform into more sustainable modes?
• How and under which conditions do business models create more sustainable values?

I study these questions in a variety of industrial contexts (such as energy transitions and process industries) and for the cases of a number of technologies (such as photovoltaics, HYBRIT, artificial intelligence). I am also curious to study new industrial sectors and new technologies in the future.
