Personal profile
Biography
I joined the University of East Anglia as Lecturer in Entrepreneurship in September 2011 and I am a member of the Marketing, Entrepreneurship and Strategy Group. I have previously completed my postgraduate and doctoral studies at Norwich Business School, University of East Anglia. I hold an MSc in Business Management and PhD in Management Research. My doctoral research investigated in empirical detail the linkages between entrepreneurship, dynamic capabilities and small business growth and was fully funded by the Greek State Scholarship Foundation (IKY).
My research and teaching interests revolve around entrepreneurship and enterprise creation, with particular focus on high technology start-ups, born-global firms and early stage entrepreneurship.
Key Research Interests
I am interested in empirical research on entrepreneurship and its broader thematic areas of enterprise creation, small business strategy and growth. If you are considering a PhD in any of these subjects and wish to discuss your research proposal, feel free to email me.
My current research agenda explores the entrepreneurial enablement of digital technologies, with empirical investigation on digital transformation, business model innovation, entrepreneurial communication within SMEs and technology ventures.
Teaching Interests
I currently manage the FT MBA programme and teach the NBS7078X Module "Entrepreneurship", alongside my teaching responsibilties on NBS7029C "Entrepreneurship and Small Business Management" and NBS6131B "Entrepreneurship and Enterprise Creation"
