Postgraduate Opportunities

I am interested in supervising students (both undergraduate and postgraduate) in the general area of  business-to-business marketing, with a focus on relationships and networks.  This can be from the traditional manufacturing sector or in business-to-business services/servitization.  By their nature business-to-business relationships are international in nature so applicants with an international focus to their research are also welcome.
