Karina Liljedal

Karina T. Liljedal is a researcher at the Center for Consumer Marketing (CCM), and the Center for Retailing (CFR). She was awarded a three-year Wallander scholarship in 2016.

In Karina's dissertation from 2016, she investigated the marketing effects of consumer co-creation. Since then, she has continued to explore how consumers, employees, and patients respond to brands’ and organisations' co-creation in new product and service development. Additionally, she is involved in research on gender- and age-based stereotypes, as well as current developments of retail such as the changing role of the physical store.

Before returning to Stockholm School of Economics for her doctoral studies, Karina worked in digital marketing and marketing research in London, Amsterdam, and Stockholm.
