In this blog post, we have the privilege of hearing from Chamath, a first-year PhD student at Edinburgh Napier University, who is embarking on a research journey to explore the intersection of sustainability, supply chains, and digitalisation. Chamath shares his personal motivations, research focus, and advice for those considering a PhD in a field that is poised to have a significant global impact.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What sparked your interest in pursuing a PhD?<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Chamath’s path to pursuing a PhD began during his Master’s studies in the United Kingdom. It was during this time that he realised his desire to make a tangible impact in the world through research. He noted, “I want to have an impact on this world, and through meaningful research I believe I can guide my path towards achieving that.” His focus is in sustainability and Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) research comes from a deep-rooted desire to innovate and solve pressing global problems. He recalls, \u201cWhenever I see a problem, I think, how can I improve this?\u201d This mindset of constant improvement, especially in the realms of supply chains, sustainability, and digitisation, has driven Chamath\u2019s academic ambitions. He believes innovation is key to addressing many of today\u2019s challenges, especially in the developing world.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Growing up in Sri Lanka, Chamath witnessed firsthand the disparity between developed and developing nations in terms of sustainability practices. “I feel sustainability efforts need to be a global movement,” he says, advocating for collaborative, worldwide efforts to tackle sustainability, particularly in developing countries.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Research Focus: ESG, Sustainability and Digitalisation <\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Chamath\u2019s research revolves around how businesses and supply chains can benefit from the integration of ESG principles, sustainability, and digitalisation. His interest in supply chains goes back to his bachelor\u2019s degree in \u2018Supply, Transport, and Logistics Management\u2019. During his undergraduate studies, he explored future trends, including sustainability’s growing impact on businesses.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

His current research focuses on a crucial aspect of modern business: how digital tools like Artificial Intelligence (AI), blockchain, and machine learning can drive improvements in sustainability practices, particularly within supply chains. \u201cWe know AI and blockchain will shape the future of business operations, why not apply similar innovations to ESG policies?” Chamath asks. This innovative angle aims to connect sustainability with digitalisation in ways that have practical, real-world impact.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What is the aim of your research?\u00a0<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Chamath\u2019s working title is \u2018ESG and Sustainable Business in the Digital Age\u2019, although he acknowledges that this could evolve as his research progresses. He is keen to identify gaps in the existing literature, which, he feels, tends to focus on theoretical concepts rather than actionable, results-driven solutions. His aim is to provide practical applications and frameworks that can drive real change. Chamath explains the overall theme of his research is to explore how sustainability, digital tools, and ESG can come together to create a more sustainable future. His focus on practical outcomes and global impact are central to his vision for the future of supply chains and businesses. Ultimately with the aim of offering businesses tangible tools to integrate sustainability into their core operations.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Why did you choose to pursue your PhD at Edinburgh Napier?<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“The academic support, career guidance, and potential supervisors here are excellent,” says Chamath, who was drawn to the university\u2019s strong emphasis on research, its student-friendly environment, and the opportunity to live and study in the vibrant city of Edinburgh.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“The culture, the people, and the natural beauty in Edinburgh really make it a dream place to study,” Chamath adds. His experience so far has confirmed that Edinburgh Napier University is the ideal environment for his academic and personal growth.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Best Advice Received During the PhD journey<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Chamath credits his director of studies, Prof. Ki Hoon Lee, with providing the best advice so far in his PhD journey: “Always remember your motivations for undertaking this research. Through this, you will achieve the best outcomes.” This advice has kept Chamath grounded as he navigates the complexities of his research topic and the challenges of a PhD. He explains, “There are so many areas to explore within sustainability, but this advice has helped me stay focused and motivated, guiding me through potential pitfalls.”<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Unusual Hobbies: Unwinding Through Adventure<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Balancing the intensity of PhD work with relaxation is crucial, and Chamath has found hiking and travel to be perfect ways to unwind. \u201cBack in Sri Lanka, I would typically go for a hike twice a month, and I\u2019ve continued that passion here in the UK,\u201d he says. He\u2019s explored some of the most scenic national parks in the UK, including the Lake District and the Peak District, where he finds peace and clarity amidst nature. Chamath also has an adventurous spirit. In his earlier years, he was a scout in Sri Lanka and had the opportunity to hike to Mount Everest Base Camp. This experience cemented his love for hiking, and he continues to embrace it as a form of relaxation. Additionally, Chamath has developed a newfound passion for football since moving to the UK. “The culture around supporting a team and being involved in a community is amazing,” he says. Watching football provides him with a fun and immersive way to take a break from academic pressures.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In Conclusion\u00a0<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Chamath\u2019s journey as a PhD student is just beginning, but his passion for sustainability, innovation, and global impact is already clear. As he explores how businesses can integrate ESG principles into supply chains through digital tools, his research promises to offer valuable insights into creating more sustainable and efficient practices for the future. With a clear focus on practical applications and a deep sense of motivation, Chamath is eager to make a meaningful impact on both his field and the world.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
