INVITATION FOR PHD DEFENCE - Lucas Göbeler


Friday, March 1, 2024 - 14:00 to 16:00

In order to obtain the PhD degree, Lucas Göbeler has submitted his thesis entitled:

Shifting and Shaping - Physicality in Digital Innovation

As digital innovation has become pervasive in almost all aspects of our life, we often come to understand it as a realm of frictionless and unbounded opportunity. However, digital innovation does not occur in isolation but in the context of a world that is not just digital – in fact our world is inherently physical. This dissertation takes the opportunity to contribute to this field of knowledge and expand our understanding of digital innovation by providing a systematic conceptualization of physicality, as well as a language of physicality that is needed to reveal the nuances of how digital innovation interacts with the physical world.

The thesis will be available from research.cbs.dk
