Master of Science (Econ.) Satu Pätäri defends her doctoral thesis with the title:

ON VALUE CREATION AT AN INDUSTRIAL INTERSECTION – BIOENERGY IN THE FOREST AND ENERGY SECTORS

The key objective of the dissertation is to examine the sources of sustainable competitive advantage and the value-creation opportunities that are emerging at the intersection between the forest and energy industries. The research topic is considered from different perspectives in order to provide a comprehensive view of the phenomenon. The research setting is explorative in nature, and both qualitative and quantitative research methods are used. As a result, the thesis lays the foundation for non-technological studies on bioenergy. It gives an example of how to study new value-creation opportunities at an industrial intersection, and discusses the main determinants affecting the value-creation process.

Dissertation will take place in auditorium 1383 at Lappeenranta University of Technology, Lappeenranta, Finland on the 16th of December, 2009, at 12:00.
