ECON/FIN 243A — Technological Rivalry

From the digital transformation of production to social networks, innovations are disrupting industries and global competition. They not only create threats and opportunities for firms but are also determinants of the welfare and security of nations. This course examines how innovation affects economic progress, how governments try to manage innovation, how firms compete in exciting high-tech sectors, and how countries contest technological leadership, especially in the Asia-Pacific region. Usually offered every second year.
