My name is Luca Fraccascia. I am an Associate Professor at the Department of Computer, Control, and Management Engineering "Antonio Ruberti" (DIAG) of Sapienza University of Rome and appointed as an Adjunct Professor at the Department of Industrial Engineering and Business Information Systems (IEBIS) of the University of Twente (The Netherlands). My research interests are Industrial Symbiosis, Circular Economy, Sustainable Consumer Behavior, Sustainable Business Models.
I hold my Master Degree in Management Engineering and my PhD in Mechanical and Management Engineering at Politecnico di Bari (Italy). My PhD thesis was focused on how to support the emergence of self-organized industrial symbiosis networks and their sustainability over a long period.
My research is aimed at supporting companies to enhance their environmental sustainability. Respecting and protecting the environment is not just an ethical choice but a duty, if we are willing to respect the future generations!
