RESEARCH AGENDA

Research agenda

My research examines digital technologies as market and organisational environments: places where people interact, information travels, and new ideas are created, evaluated, and commercialised.

Digital Platforms, Ecosystems & Innovation

I study how platforms shape innovation diffusion, complementor participation, market feedback, and value creation across app stores, crowdfunding, retail, and other digital ecosystems.

AI, Algorithms & Human Interaction

I examine how algorithmic and AI-enabled systems influence human judgement, participation, and interaction—and the conditions under which these systems shift discretion or responsibility.

Digital Markets & Technology-Mediated Behaviour

I investigate how design, information, and interaction features influence behaviour in digital markets, online communities, and technology-mediated consumption.

Digital Governance, Privacy & Responsible Technology

I study how policy, institutional context, and privacy technologies condition adoption and the societal consequences of digital innovation.

METHODS

Computational, quantitative, and data-intensive research

I work with large-scale digital trace data, econometric modelling, causal inference, experiments, machine learning, and natural language processing. These are methodological commitments that support—not define—the substantive questions above.
