Research in the intersection between Platform Economics and Tokenomics

Research Summary

I am introducing digital tokens in a platform setting as a tool to promote sustainable platform growth and increase total welfare; we use mathematical and simulation techniques for this endeavour. I am also very interested in the behavioural finance aspects of multi-sided markets.

Background

I obtained my MSc in Finance from the University of Edinburgh Business School in Scotland and my BSc in Economics and Finance from Swansea University in Wales. I have also worked as a teaching assistant in Business Economics. I am working with my industrial sponsor, OneStac, a startup that will use my research to launch a marketplace and prove that the token distribution techniques suggested by my research are correct.
