Gorgi is Associate Professor of Sustainability at ESCP Business School in Paris. He also holds a Visiting Professorship at Politecnico di Milano.

In his research he deals with social entrepreneurship, social innovations and impact. He is particularly interested in how cross-sector collaborations and new field emergence promote societal transformations and contribute to addressing environmental and social sustainability challenges.

His open access book Social Innovation: Comparative Perspectives received the Best Book Award from the Public and Nonprofit Division of the Academy of Management (AOM). His new book Social Economy Science: Transforming the Economy & Making Society More Resilient was published by Oxford University Press in 2023.

Gorgi developed TRANSFORM, an open source platform for enhancing sustainability teaching in higher education that won a Responsible Business Education Award by the Financial Times. The platform builds on the Massive Open Online Course “Accelerating Investment Readiness” (#AirMOOC), which Gorgi led and which was awarded for its impact on society.
