Maria Elmquist

Professor vid Innovation and R&D Management

Maria Elmquist (f.d. Backman) är Chalmers prorektor med ansvar för ledarskap och jämlikhet sedan januari 2024.

Som professor i Technology Management kretsar Maria Elmquists forskning, vid Institutionen för teknikens ekonomi och organisation, kring hantering av innovation i teknikbaserade företag, med fokus på hur innovation kan möjliggöras i stora organisationer, hur organisationer kan utveckla innovationsförmåga och hur innovation kan uppnås genom samarbete, i nätverk eller ekosystem. Pågående forskning undersöker hur design och designpraktik i innovation i syfte att förstå hur innovation kan ledas och organiseras i sammanhang som kännetecknas av osäkerhet och det okända. Hon handleder för närvarande två doktorander, om innovation i framväxande ekosystem och design av agila organisationer. 

Hennes arbete har publicerats i tidskrifter som Research Policy, R&D Management och Creativity and Innovation Management. Hon har publicerat över femtio vetenskapliga artiklar och konferensbidrag, en bok om konceptbilutveckling och flera bokkapitel.

Hon är också affilierad forskare till Centre de Gestion Scientifique (CGS) vid Mines ParisTech.
