My research looks at the ways in which institutions and spatial dynamics support innovation in emerging-market multinational enterprises (EMNES), trying to reconcile international business studies with other altenative literatures, such as systems of innovation, global production networks and global innovation networks.  

As a secondary research interest, I am concerned with electoral integrity matters, especially with the sources of political parties' finance, and the way in which illegal funding endangers the electoral system, and ultimately the democratic process.
