Valentina Carbone is Professor of Sustainability and Supply Chain Management at ESCP Business School, Paris campus. She is the scientific director of the PhD Programme.
In her research, she deals with inter-organisational and collective dynamics in global value chains and contemporary grand challenges, with a particular focus on how multi-stakeholder initiatives (such as RSPO) or new production and consumption models (such as sharing and circular economy) contribute to addressing environmental and social sustainability challenges.
Her research has been financed by public sector bodies such as the European Commission or the French Ministry for Sustainable Development. It has been published in major international journals in the fields of supply chain and sustainability.
She established and co-directed the Chair on Circular Economy; she is responsible for the Sustainability Rethink specialisation track and for an online Sustainability Management course for all MSc students at ESCP.
