Manuel Hoffmann
Manuel Hoffmann is a postdoctoral scholar at the Laboratory for Innovation Science at Harvard housed within the Digital, Data, and Design institute at Harvard Business School. He is also affiliated with Stanford University. His broad research interests are in the domain of technology and innovation management, with a focus on social and behavioral aspects of artificial intelligence and open source software to better understand how both can be leveraged by large, medium-sized, and entrepreneurial firms to more effectively compete in the market, while also adding value to society. He is particularly interested in the strategic implications of digital tools for open source software, a critical public good upon which the modern economy is built. His prior research experience in labor and health economics equipped him to apply the tools of the trade towards managerially relevant questions in this exciting and growing area.
