His research interests cover different topics on urban and regional studies, but in particular he has specialized in the cultural and creative industries, cultural-driven economic development, cultural consumption and consumer behaviour. His social sciences perspective is sincerely multidisciplinary combining approaches and theories from economics, sociology and geography.

In his latest publications he has explored the impact of digital transformation and the nature of the data-driven economy.
