New publication in Research Policy

In the article, called “Knowledge ecosystem emergence: Organizing participation, identity, and actorhood to bridge the governance void,” Ermal and colleagues tackle a question that matters on Transformative Innovation Policy, and collective action and how the industry, government agencies, and academic in Sweden move from bottom up, from talk to coordinated action.

Ermal says about the article and study: “Several years of empirical research and work in this study. We provide and in-depth understanding and theorize how distributed governance and collective action allow ecosystems to evolve and tackle challenges that no single actor can solve alone!”

Thanks to colleagues and friends who pushed this forward with sharp comments and encouragement, at LNU, LUT and KTH, and to partners around HCT (CLOSER, Trafikverket, VTI, Scania, Volvo and many more) who shared time and insight!
