My research centres on valuation processes in impact investing, with a particular focus on early-stage private equity investors and environmental impact. Through in-depth qualitative studies I explore how investors attribute value in novel ways, and the relationship between valuation and perceptions of the future. I'm experienced in the practice of impact investing through my work with early-stage impact funds and have been part of organizing the emerging impact investing community in the Nordics. I'm also part of the Impact Investing Research Group.
