Selina Lorenz successfully defends her PhD and bids farewell

Big Congratulations to Selina Lorenz for successfully defending her PhD thesis on cross-sector innovation at the Sustainability Innovation Lab! Following a research stint at Oxford’s Saïd Business School, Selina is transitioning back to industry to join Stadler Rail. We thank her for three years of invaluable contributions and wish her the very best in her new role!

We warmly congratulate Selina Lorenz on successfully defending her PhD thesis. Selina’s research makes an important contribution to our understanding of how private and public organizations collaborate to drive innovation across institutional and sectoral boundaries. During her time at the Sustainability Innovation Lab, she also completed a research visit at Saïd Business School, University of Oxford, where she was hosted by Professor Eero Vaara.
Sadly, with the completion of her PhD, Selina’s time at the Sustainability Innovation Lab comes to an end as she decided to return to industry and join Stadler Rail. We thank her for her excellent work and valuable contributions over the past three years, and we wish her every success in this next chapter!
