What is your educational background? What’s your area of research and what led you to it? Productivity is often the secret sauce to growth: Companies, and countries, with similar resources can have vastly different outcomes depending on how effectively they utilize their inputs. Domestic and international trade can affect not just the range of goods and services available to producers, but also the scope of knowledge and technology to which they have access. My work aims to uncover how individual and aggregate outcomes are shaped by the myriad relationships—such as through transactions, geographic proximity, or ownership—that exist between firms. And if these relationships have a meaningful impact on firm growth and innovation, how are they formed, sustained, and reorganized, and how should that influence our models of firm behavior and market structure? What will you be teaching? What would you be doing if you weren’t an academic? Where are you from? What is something you like to do outside of your academic work? What’s your favorite book, movie, or piece of art? |
