About Khalid Mehmood

Dedicated marketing researcher at the dynamic intersection of Marketing, Services, and Technology with over five years of experience as a university lecturer in Pakistan, complemented by scientific research and teaching assistant roles at two renowned Belgian universities, I offer a unique blend of academic and practical expertise. My five years with leading FMCGs companies enrich my insights into real-world marketing challenges. Aspiring to contribute extensive academic and practical knowledge to an esteemed academic institution to foster future marketing professionals. After being born in a farmer family in Pakistan, struggling against all odds of conventional thinking, and ending up as a PhD researcher in Belgium has largely shaped my unique perspectives and aspirations. I understand how it feels to be socially, financially or food insecure and go above and beyond when an opportunity arises. I take great pride in resilience, persistence, diligence, and empathy. This is why I love exploring potential of human and societal well-being from services in today’s data rich environments. I also credit myself for being approachable and easy to connect with. Life has taught me to seize opportunities, regardless of how risky they may be. Please feel free to contact me. I am always open to an insightful conversation over coffee, or even better, a round of walk around the city.
