With a PhD from Lund University, Jerker Lessing serves as Director of Research & Development at BoKlok, one of Sweden’s leading housing companies within industrialized construction. BoKlok is a joint venture between the Construction Company Skanska and the furniture Company IKEA and has the aim to build “Sustainable, high-quality homes, to a low cost, for all”. BoKlok is active in 4 countries and have built 12.000 homes so far. In his role Jerker leads the company’s R&D initiatives and collaboration with academic partners.

In his research he developed a framework and models that serve as a theoretical foundation for academic research as well as a guide for companies’ development towards industrialization.
