Emma Lappi

I am an Assistant Professor in Economics at the Department of Business Development and Technology at Aarhus University. I am also an affiliated researcher at the Department of Industrial Economics and Management at the Blekinge Institute of Technology. 

My work focuses on issues related to self-employment/entrepreneurship, human capital, and productivity. My current projects cover topics, especially the roles of entrepreneurial experience, ability, childcare, and perceived safety in individual entry decisions; entrepreneurial productivity, innovation, and resilience. 

Between all my research, teaching, and policy-related activities, I also run as fast and long as possible. I am always on the lookout for fun marathons or half-marathons to race.
