معرفی
Stephanie Francis Grimbert serves as an Assistant Professor at the University of Deusto in San Sebastian, Spain, while concurrently completing her Ph.D. dissertation at the same institution. She maintains an active research affiliation with CIRCLE (Centre for Innovation, Research and Competence in the Learning Economy) at Lund University, Sweden, focusing on interdisciplinary innovation policy applications.
Education
- MBA from Ecole Supérieure des Sciences Economiques et Commerciales (ESSEC)
- Ph.D. candidate at University of Deusto (Thesis: Innovation policy from a value creation perspective with end-user inclusion focus)
Research Focus
Her scholarship critically examines innovation policy through value creation frameworks, specializing in public procurement mechanisms that drive circular economy transitions and sustainable urban development. She investigates how cluster management organizations foster shared value among stakeholders while integrating end-users into innovation constellations, with particular emphasis on place branding, capability development, and transformative policy instruments in European contexts.
Publication Trends
Recent works (2023-2024) demonstrate concentrated research on public procurement as a catalyst for systemic innovation, featuring case studies like Malmö's urban rehabilitation. Her articles consistently bridge theoretical constructs (dynamic capabilities, emergent strategies) with practical implementations in circular economy and cluster management, revealing a methodological preference for institutional analysis and transformative policy assessment within European governance frameworks.
