Networked Value Systems (NeVS) is a research group that brings together business and engineering to study operations and supply chain management, digital manufacturing and quality management, technology and innovation management, and sustainable energy transition. We are interested in how value networks evolve, how sustainable transformation takes place and how it is shaped by operational excellence, digitalisation, new technologies and products. Under this umbrella, research is organised around four main themes.
