Personal profile
Research
I am a Professor of Business Development and Sustainable Innovation at the Department of People and Society at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU). I also hold a position at the International Institute for Industrial Environmental Economics (IIIEE) at Lund University.
With a background in political science and environmental science, and 25 years of academic and management experience, I actively engage in a combination of research, education and collaboration activities on sustainability across the fields of business, innovation and governance.
I lead and co-ordinate the Business Management Group (BMG) at SLU and I am co-leader for the Nature-based Solutions Network (NBSN) at SLU. I am currently working in projects with a focus on advancing nature-based solutions, sustainable food systems, and climate action in cities.
