I received the PhD in Science and Technology Policy at SPRU, University of Sussex, UK, in 2005. From 2006 to 2008, I was a post-doc researcher at Eindhoven University of technology. From 2008 to 2011, I was a senior Research Fellow at the Politecnico di Torino, and part-time assistant professor at Grenoble Ecole de Management.

My research focuses on the economics and management of innovation and technology. In particular, I am interested in processes of knowledge development and transfer, adoption and diffusion of innovations, and innovation policies.
