We are seeking a highly motivated and talented scientist with a strong background in the economics of digital innovation to join our team on the DIGINNOVA project. DIGINNOVA is dedicated to understanding how firms capitalize on digital technologies, including artificial intelligence, for economic growth, and the challenges faced during this transformation. The successful candidate will be instrumental in empirically analysing patterns and impacts of digital technology and AI adoption, as well as conceptualising how these technologies are transformed into competitive products and services. A crucial aspect of this role is the ability to conduct empirical analysis addressing the economic behaviour and decision-making of businesses in the context of digital innovation. The goal is to translate these insights into policy implications that inform EU-level policymaking and drive the digital transformation of EU companies, contributing to the achievement of the Digital Decade targets.
