I am Dalila, an applied economist with an interdisciplinary research background in International Business and Economics, with expertise on Foreign Direct Investments, Environmental Innovation and International R&D.
I hold a PhD in Economics and International Business (2021), a MSc in International Relations and Economic Development from University of Pavia (Italy) and before moving into academia, I was a junior credit risk modeling associate in a FinTECH.
Beyond academia, I collaborate with major international organizations such as the ILO, UNCTAD, and the Asian Development Bank, and the Department of Business and Trade (United Kingdom).
Through these collaborations, I apply my research to tackle real-world economic challenges, contributing to a deeper understanding of the world economy.
In 2024 I was nominated among the 5 Empowering Women in Manufacturing: Innovators and Leaders. Read the article here.
