PhD position in strategy, innovation and climate change
University of Amsterdam
(Noord-Holland)
Job description
Function title: PhD position
The candidate will be supervised by Prof. Ans Kolk and Dr Jonatan Pinkse and will thus be able to profit from the experience built up on business responses to climate change in the past decade at ABS. This project will focus on business and climate change, with specific attention to how companies draw on their strategic and innovative capabilities in developing solutions to climate change. In recent years, interest in cleaner, more climate-friendly technologies - such as solar energy and low-emission cars - has grown very rapidly, and new products and markets are emerging. However, there is not much research that systematically investigates the drivers and implications for companies to move in such directions. The research will combine multiple methods of investigation, qualitative as well as quantitative, and also calls for skills in research liaison with host organizations and good external presentation skills.
