On 4 Apr.2019, we welcomed the speaker Dr.Alexander White from Tsinghua University School of Economics and Management.He is an Associate Professor in the Department of Economics whose research is primarily in Industrial Organization and Microeconomic Theory, with particular focus on the economics of the Internet.
In the seminar, Dr.White presented his last research “The Economics of Online Platforms”, which surveys much economic work that has studied ‘online platforms’, focusing on the ways in which traditional economic models have been adapted to incorporate novel aspects made relevant by the Internet.
More than 20 teachers and students of the School of Economics and Management have participated in the seminar and discussed the study with Dr.White. We are looking forward to the Bi-Week Applied Economics Colloquium next week.
