LORRAINE WARREN

Senior Lecturer in Entrepreneurship & Innovation

School of Management

University of Southampton

Dr Lorraine Warren is a Senior Lecturer in Entrepreneurship and Innovation and Deputy Director of Postgraduate Education in the School of Management. The main thread of her research is underpinned by complexity theory and addresses how new business models and new value creation systems emerge in volatile new sectors. Projects in this area are focused on the creative arts, start-ups in the science sector, and management practices in incubators, with particular interest in very early stage concept development. She has explored these issues within the EPSRC’s ‘Connecting Communities for the Digital Economy’ initiative, as part of the Steering Group of the Creator cluster, www.creatorproject.org and continues to develop those themes at the personal level and also as a member of the University’s Digital Economy Strategic Research Group. A second strand considers the identity of the entrepreneur in society and how the media represent different forms of entrepreneurship.

Turning to teaching, she is unit coordinator for Innovation and Technology Transfer (MSc), the Creator (MBA) and Managing Innovation and Innovation and Technology Transfer at UG level.  She has pioneered the use of new teaching methods in the School as part of the E-Learning Working Group, and is particularly interested in the use of social networking methods by staff and students to create communities of academic interest.

As Deputy Director PG Education, (August 2008- ) she is currently responsible for education issues concerning MSc and MBA programmes across the School, (17 programmes and around 600 students).  She chairs the PG Education Committee which comprises the Programme Directors of the programmes as well as other School representatives, and the Exam Boards. She has taken a significant development role in the School since she joined the University in 2004.  In 2004, she lead the development of the BSc Management with Entrepreneurship and continued to lead the Programme until the end of 2007. At the start of 2008, she directed the School’s Postgraduate Research programme for 6 months while a colleague was on study leave.
