Dr. R. Elena Francu is an Assistant Professor within the Marketing Department at Nottingham University Business School (NUBS). Prior to this, she was a Teaching Associate within the Marketing Division at NUBS (2018-2020). Before joining NUBS, Elena completed her Ph.D. in Marketing (2013-2019) at Maastricht University School of Business and Economics (The Netherlands). As a Ph.D. candidate she was extensively involved in various research, teaching, and supervision roles in the areas of Marketing and Management at BSc., MSc., and MBA levels.

Her research focuses on deploying sensor technology to generate insights into the dynamics of product and service innovation teams. More specifically, her work uncovers how team creative problem solving can be explained by objective and fine-grained behaviors (i.e., "social signals" such as vocalics, proxemics, and kinesics) in real-life innovation teams.

In her research, Elena works in collaboration with a number of companies in sectors such as professional services, software and ICT, financial services, medical technology, veterinary pharmaceutics, and education. Elena serves as a reviewer for the Industrial Marketing Management journal.
