Continued support for a research environment with trade-relevant research at the Stockholm School of Economics. This support has varied over time, but for a number of years it has amounted to a volume equivalent to covering 75 percent of the living expenses of three doctoral students and two postdocs, including overheads. First, we report on how the previous year's grant was used and some important ideas behind the pattern shown. It then highlights some of the developments in four programs and three separate projects. The programs are: a) Solution Business, b) Sustainable Business, c) Service Innovation, d) International Retailing. The projects covered are: a) Open Books, b) Pricing as an organizational issue. The highlighting indicates the projects and researchers supported and what has been achieved. However, it also indicates a number of interesting other and future projects that are planned. Where specific researchers are already involved, their names and the funding applied for are indicated. In other cases, the type of people (doctoral students, PhDs) intended to be associated with the research in question is indicated.
