Bocconi University - ICRIOS

ICRIOS, The Invernizzi Center for Research on Innovation, Organization, Strategy, and Entrepreneurship at Bocconi University, focuses on advancing multidisciplinary and collaborative research that impacts both academia and practice. Our research explores how innovation and green technologies are reshaping competitive advantages and the resilience of global value chains in response to sustainability demands. We examine the dynamics of innovation-driven growth and industrial policies within a fragmented global economy, considering how countries can build resilience against exogenous shocks like pandemics or geopolitical conflicts, and the effectiveness of strategies that promote sectoral stability. We aim to develop insights into resilience, supply chain adaptability, and strategies for sustainable development in an interconnected world. We seek European non-academic partners, particularly NGOs, interested in collaborating on these topics to enrich the practical application of our research and to ensure the development of solutions with real-world impact across diverse sectors. Partnering with such organizations will enhance the project’s scope, bringing in on-the-ground perspectives critical to shaping policies and strategies aligned with sustainable economic goals.
