Primary research areas

Cor­por­ate Sustain­ability Due Di­li­gence Dir­ect­ive
My re­search in­vest­ig­ates how the CSDDD in­flu­ences European Con­tract Law and how com­pan­ies in the in­tern­al mar­ket can cre­ate value in this reg­u­lat­ory shift.
Cor­por­ate Code of Con­ducts
I ex­am­ine how the use of a code of con­duct un­der the Cor­por­ate Sustain­ability Due Di­li­gence Dir­ect­ive can have a bind­ing ef­fect on third parties both when used as a uni­lat­er­al com­mit­ment and when in­cor­por­ated into a con­tract
Stra­tegic Con­tract­ing
Stra­tegic con­tract­ing aims to build fair, re­peated part­ner­ships to cre­ate a joint com­pet­it­ive ad­vant­age and re­la­tion­al rent. It uses pro­act­ive and re­act­ive pro­vi­sions based on re­source com­ple­ment­ar­ity and stra­tegic fit, to pro­tect know­ledge ex­change and re­la­tion­ship-spe­cif­ic in­vest­ments against op­por­tun­ist­ic be­ha­viour.

I see the EU cli­mate rules' im­pact on con­tracts and value

My research explores how European contract law adapts to the green transition, focusing on the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD) and climate regulation. I examine how legal frameworks can enable companies to transform compliance into opportunities for innovation, value creation, and sustainable growth. 

It helps: 

Companies integrate sustainability and human rights into global value chains 

Organizations foster long-term collaboration and innovation for a low-carbon economy 

I am motivated by the ambition to align law, business, and climate goals, ensuring that private governance contributes to public goods.
