2. My Research & Teaching at Copenhagen Business School
Sustainable Capitalism – Strategic Contracting in complex value chains
Authors: Kim Østergaard & Lasse Holt | Publisher: Djøf Forlag | Status: Manuscript in draft • Expected publication November 2026
• We will host an official book reception in Copenhagen following the publication in November 2026.
In our upcoming book, we break away from traditional standard contracts and establish a multilateral value chain model based on club goods, game theory, and incentive design. I demonstrate how companies can eliminate unnecessary disputes and reduce transaction costs across thousands of supplier tiers.
