My current research focuses on exploring the implications of sustainable innovation within business networks and markets. Previously, my research has encompassed innovation management, commercialization processes, collaborative innovation, new product launches, and the value of business relationships. I have had the privilege of contributing to various research projects and learning from diverse industries.

Currently, I am involved in an multidisciplinary project called PURKU, which aims to promote circular economy practices for demolition waste, specifically concrete and tiles. Prior to this, I participated in the NewPack research project, where we investigated potential value networks for a new biobased film developed and validated for food packaging purposes within the project.
