I am a Senior Economist at the OECD Directorate for Science, Technology and Innovation, where I lead the Business dynamism, Competition, and Investment team in the Productivity, Innovation and Entrepreneurship Division. My research lies at the intersection of empirical industrial organisation and the economics of innovation and productivity, with a particular emphasis on competition, firm dynamics, entrepreneurship, and technology diffusion.
I hold a dual Ph.D. in Economics from the University of Rome Tor Vergata and from the Einaudi Institute for Economics and Finance (EIEF), and a M.Res. in Economic Theory and Econometric at the Toulouse School of Economics (TSE). During my Ph.D. I have been Visiting Student Research Collaborator at the University of Princeton.
