Karina T. Liljedal is a researcher (Docent) at the Center for Consumer Marketing (CCM), and teacher the Center for Retailing (CFR). She was awarded a three-year Wallander scholarship in 2016.  

In Karina's dissertation from 2016, she investigated the marketing effects of consumer co-creation. Since then, she has been involved in several research projects on gender- and age-based stereotypes, as well as current developments in retail such as the changing role of the physical store, video commerce and digital service encounters, product visualization in e-commerce, and retail media.  

Before returning to Stockholm School of Economics for her doctoral studies, Karina worked in digital marketing and marketing research in London, Amsterdam, and Stockholm. Karina is also frequently hired as a speaker and business development consultant.
