Short bio

Dries Couckuyt obtained a PhD in Applied Economic Sciences from Ghent University. He has several publications on the subject of Green business process management. While business processes are typically evaluated based on cost, quality, time, and flexibility, the challenge of his PhD was to integrate ecological sustainability as a performance dimension.

After his PhD, Dries went to Waseda University in Tokyo to conduct one year of research on the sustainability policies of Japanese municipalities.

Currently working as a researcher at CenSE, Dries mainly focuses on sustainable entrepreneurship and socio-economic sustainability.
