I believe that a suite of frontier technologies are transitioning us to a richer and freer digital economy. My work speeds up this transition through research, working closely with the industry frontier, and directly shaping public policy. I’m an Associate Professor of economics at RMIT University and a Director of the Digital Economy Council of Australia. I’ve published five books and numerous peer reviewed journal articles on topics including cryptodemocracy, innovation policy, token airdrops, web3 governance and regulatory reform. My award-winning research has been published in leading journals including Research Policy, the Harvard Negotiation Law Review and the Journal of Business Research. My work has been cited over 2000 times and my papers on SSRN have been downloaded over 26,000 times (top 0.2% of authors). My forthcoming book with Cambridge University Press is Institutional Acceleration: The Consequences of Technological Change for a Digital Economy, exploring how technologies such as blockchains, artificial intelligence and low earth orbit satellites are transitioning us to a new digital economy.
