Hans Löfsten

Professor vid Entrepreneurship and Strategy

Hans Löfsten är professor i Teknikens ekonomiska analys vid avdelningen Entreprenörskap och strategi. Löfsten avlade ekonomexamen (civilekonom) 1988 och ekonomie doktorsexamen 1992 vid Handelshögskolan vid Göteborgs universitet. Han blev docent 1999 i Technology Management vid Chalmers tekniska högskola, biträdande professor 2005 i Technology Management och professor 2007 i Teknikens ekonomiska analys (Engineering economic analysis) vid Chalmers, institutionen för Teknikens ekonomi och organisation. Löfsten har även tjänstgjort vid forskningsinstituten Gothenburg Research Institute (GRI) och Institute for Management of Innovation and Technology (IMIT). Löfsten har under många år varit engagerad i grundutbildningen och har författat två läroböcker inom industriell ekonomi/ekonomisk analys. Han har som huvud- eller bihandledare handlett tio doktorander till doktorsexamen. Hans Löfsten har även varit prefekt, viceprefekt och avdelningschef.

Löfsten har publicerat ett större antal internationella vetenskapliga artiklar inom ett flertal områden, men även författat läroböcker. Forskningen handlar huvudsakligen om innovationsekonomi, det vill säga ett effektivt resursutnyttjande för nytt teknikbaserat företagande i bland annat innovationssystem, exempelvis företag lokaliserade i teknik- och forskningsparker och inkubatorer. Utvecklingen av nya teknikbaserade företag och dess innovationer är av betydelse för nya industriella strukturer och den långsiktiga ekonomiska utvecklingen. Forskningsområdet omfattar utvecklandet av modeller för en effektiv resursallokering för främst teknikbaserade företag. Löfsten har publicerat artiklar i tidskrifter såsom Research Policy, Small Business Economics, R&D Management, Journal of Small Business Management, Technovation, Omega, The Journal of Technology Transfer, International Journal of Production Economics och International Journal of Operations and Production Management. Han är också välkänd från flera bibliometriska studier om teknik- och forskningsparker, inkubatorer och nya teknikbaserade företag.
