Research
Decoding complexity, empowering decisions.
I am a professor of Business Management and Analytics at Roma Tre University, where I lead the Business and Collective Intelligence Lab. My research team is inspired by wild and challenging ideas and strives to create a more just and promising world.
We combine methods from network science, natural language processing and machine learning with theories from the social sciences, psychology, humanities and linguistics to advance knowledge and discovery about management and human behavior. I invented the Semantic Brand Score and we also specialize in brand analytics.
We work with colleagues from leading international institutions, such as the MIT Center for Collective Intelligence, Northeastern University, Université du Québec à Montréal, ISTAT, ENEA, Mount Sinai Hospital (NY), Politecnico di Torino, Free University of Bozen, Kozminski University, and many others.
