About the project
About the Project Sustainability is increasingly moving from reporting and compliance toward measurable impact, resource regeneration, and long-term value creation. This DBA research opportunity focuses on the design of financial models and decision frameworks that integrate sustainability, circular economy principles, biodiversity considerations, and regenerative business logic into capital allocation. Possible research directions include regenerative finance, ESG maturity, circular value creation, biodiversity risk, sustainable investment decision-making, and finance-led transformation toward responsible growth. This opportunity is particularly relevant for experienced professionals in investment banking, corporate finance, energy, agriculture, sustainability, consulting, or ESG strategy. Candidates may design a regenerative materiality matrix, sustainable capital allocation model, or strategic finance framework that supports decision-making beyond compliance. The expected contribution is a practical artefact that helps leaders and finance teams evaluate sustainability not simply as a reporting obligation, but as a driver of strategic resilience and value creation. Tuition and scholarships This is a self-funded doctoral research opportunity. The total tuition fee for the Franklin Hudson DBA program is €62,600 . Partial merit-based scholarships may be awarded to strong candidates, up to 30% maximum of tuition. Payment plans are available.
