Economic, environment, and social development are the three pillars of sustainability. My research has been at the intersection of entrepreneurship and sustainability; with a focus on the social dimension through social entrepreneurship, and on the environmental dimension through renewable energy. The peripheral areas addressed through my past research had been business strategy, food innovation, social innovation, political strategy, and public policy. To make matters easier, I have categorised my past publications in terms of the SDG they can be closely or remotely related to.
