Per Frankelius is an Associate Professor and Senior Lecturer in Business Administration at Linköping University's Department of Economic and Industrial Development (IEI). His work centers on understanding and stimulating innovative processes, primarily in agriculture, with marketing as a key component. He serves as process manager for Agtech Sweden (formerly Agtech 2030), a major innovation initiative funded by Vinnova with a budget of nearly 200 million SEK. Frankelius's research focuses on the intersection of innovation, marketing, and business analysis. He defines innovation as 'original concepts that gain acceptance in society,' arguing that marketing and external factors are natural parts of the innovation process. His current work emphasizes agricultural innovations, climate calculations, and the role of agriculture in addressing global challenges like food security and climate change. He has developed visual models of company development over time and studies 'X-factors'—external elements not central to mainstream economic models. His publications reveal a strong trend toward practical applications of innovation theory in agriculture and sustainability. The research spans climate policy, technological standardization, resource integration in green services, and international agricultural technology transfer. Frankelius frequently connects innovation to broader societal challenges, particularly food security and the role of agriculture in peace and stability. His work bridges theoretical business administration with practical agricultural applications, often challenging conventional paradigms like the IPCC's climate calculations for agriculture. Silver Medal, Agritechnica Innovation Award (as part of Agtech 2030 team) Frankelius actively participates in societal debates, writing for publications like The Lancet and Aftonbladet. He advocates for investment in agricultural innovation to prevent food shortages that could lead to conflict. His work with Agtech Sweden involves collaboration with numerous industry partners, government agencies, and international organizations. The initiative has secured significant funding from Vinnova and has established a national knowledge hub for agricultural digitalization with a 20 million SEK budget. As co-leader of the innovation environment Agtech Sweden, Frankelius works with partners to establish an innovation ecosystem focused on sensors, digital technology, AI, and the Internet of Things for tomorrow's agriculture. The initiative includes projects like solar co-farming, precision agriculture, and international delegation trips to share knowledge and develop new technologies.
