This position makes you part of a larger group of Entrepreneurship and Innovation researchers at Luleå University of Technology (LTU). We look for you, who have an academic degree of at least 180 ECTS, preferably in business administration or engineering, and want to move on to a research education in Entrepreneurship and Innovation. This position offers 4 years of full time research education (60% research; 40% PhD courses) where you receive a PhD in Entrepreneurship and Innovation upon successful completion of courses and PhD thesis defense; alternatively a Licentiate degree after two years of study. The PhD thesis will be a compilation of publishable papers intended for an international academic audience.

Project focus: To maintain competitiveness and innovation performance, many Swedish manufacturing companies are becoming global product-service providers, where core physical products are complemented by industrial services such as maintenance, IT monitoring, and control over the product lifecycle. Developing and commercializing such offers requires gaining insights related to new business models, processes for joint value creation and a high degree of customization to meet different requirements from heterogeneous global markets.

In this position you will be given opportunities to advance your understanding about how manufacturing companies can become global providers of customized industrial product-services. The project is funded by VINNOVA and involves collaboration with thirteen well-known Swedish companies, such as Volvo Construction Equipment, Ericsson, Sandvik Coromant, among others. We expect that you enjoy working independently, setting up own goals and taking own initiatives. The position requires that you are fluent in English so that you can communicate your research orally and in written form. It is good if you know Swedish, but it is not required for the position.
