My research at Cambridge focused on the role of personal networks on knowledge flows and regional economic development. I investigated how personal networks affect innovative firms and regional economic development. The community of the Gates Scholars represents a great opportunity to discuss intellectual and practical problems in a truly international perspective. After an ESRC-funded postdoc position at the Open University Business School I become Lecturer, then Senior Lecturer and Director of a Centre for Innovation and Entreprise at Southampton Business School. I am currently Professor of Innovation Management at Seeburg Castle University in Austria. I remain affiliated with Southampton as a Visiting Fellow. Furthermore, I am a Senior Research Associate at the Stavanger Centre for Innovation Research (Norway), and I am an External Examiner at Imperial College Business School .
