Maynooth University had been my academic home for more than eight years. During this time, I had the opportunity to advance my research, to develop the innovation-related curriculum at the School of Business, and to contribute to the development of the PhD programme and the School’s Strategic Plan. It has been a rewarding and inspiring journey, and I would like to sincerely thank my colleagues at the School of Business Maynooth University for their support and collaboration throughout the years.
Now it is time for a new chapter. I have joined the Unit for Innovation and Entrepreneurship at the University of Gothenburg, Sweden as Senior Lecturer. Returning to Gothenburg and the Unit feels special, as I worked at the Unit many years ago as a guest PhD student. We have maintained close collaborative ties since that time. I look forward to continuing ongoing research projects with my colleagues in Gothenburg, as well as to future interactions with colleagues in the Gothenburg Centre on knowledge-intensive innovation ecosystems, the Department of Economy and Society, the School of Business, Economics, and Law, and the broader Gothenburg University community.
