Presentation

Daniel Hjorth is Professor of Entrepreneurship and Organisation at the Department of Business Humanities and Law, Copenhagen Business School, Denmark. Between 2013 and 2018 he served as Academic Director for the across CBS Entrepreneurship Business in Society Platform.

Daniel Hjorth is currently employed as a 20% professor at BHL.

Daniel's research interests include the conditions for creativity, entrepreneurship and innovation in the context of the already organized. How organization-creation is done and how conditions for multi-disciplinary, collaborative creativity is organized and led are long-term fascinations. Central to studying, analyzing and writing on this is the economy-aesthetics relationship, and the philosophy- and humanities conversation that I nurture to feed this creative tension.

Daniel Hjorth runs a Centre for Aesthetics and Business Creativity (ABC) at Lund University in order to support and develop such broadly humanities- and art oriented business administration research and education.
