CIRCLE is the Centre for Innovation Research at Lund University. It functions as incubator, coordinator, and implementer of innovation research across faculties. Our aim is to understand and explain how innovation can contribute to a good society and tackle societal challenges such as economic crises, climate change or the increased globalization of economic activities. 

The research is organised in nine research themes, hosting different research projects, and most researchers at CIRCLE are involved in several themes.  

CIRCLE strives to provide an attractive research environment with strong national and international networks and welcomes visiting researchers.
