About
I am a Professor of Technology Management and Circular Economy and the Head of Kingston Business School at Kingston University London. I joined Kingston University in September 2024 and prior to this, I was the Dean of School of Management at University of Bradford. I started my academic career as a Post-Doctoral Researcher at Brunel University London.
I enjoy teaching and research that are interdisciplinary and centred around the use of emerging digital technologies by businesses and organisations for the betterment of society. I am the Deputy Editor of Journal of Enterprise Information Management and I have published over 50 scientific articles in leading peer-reviewed journals and conferences. I have a successful track record as Principal and Co-investigator in over £3 million worth of Research and Innovation and consultancy projects surrounding themes such as 6G technology impact evaluation, AI innovation strategy development and Smart Cities funded by reputable funding bodies and commercial organisations. Some of the notable funders include the European Commission, Qatar National Research Fund (QNRF), Innovate UK/DEFRA and British Council.
I am an elected governing Council Member and Treasurer of the Chartered Association of Business Schools (CABS) in the UK and a Fellow of the UK Higher Education Academy (FHEA).
