Research

In his research, he examines how digital technologies and remote/hybrid work arrangements are transforming labour markets, firms and the wider economy. His work also investigates how innovation and digitalisation affect inequalities across firms and places. He also studies how international trade agreements shape firms’ internationalisation strategies and contribute to economic welfare. His research combines large-scale administrative data and unstructured big data sources, such as LinkedIn and job postings, with quantitative methods for causal inference.
