About Amalie

Hello! My name is Amalie Østhassel and I am starting my PhD in April 2021. I have an MSc in Innovation and Global Sustainable Development from Lund University in Sweden. In my master thesis, I explored the barriers and opportunities for Norwegian social innovation to enter low-income markets in India, specifically looking at sustainable business models and strategies.

​In my PhD, I will continue researching sustainable business models for the green economy with specific emphasis on inclusive growth and innovation systems working within the planetary boundaries. For the SFI I will investigate to what extent the UN Sustainable Development Goals are incorporated in Norwegian business models and strategy.
