Nasrin Sultana
My research interests include understanding different types of linkages between organizations in different industries and ecosystems as well as the impact of such linkages on the relevant organizations, industries, and ecosystems at both local and global levels. I am particularly interested in understanding the process of knowledge and technology transfer through such linkages in different subsectors of information technology including artificial intelligence (AI) and health AI.
I am proficient in applying network analysis, quantitative, and qualitative approaches in research, and have modeled the global Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) network to study how a country's position in the global FDI network is related to the technological advancement of the country. I would like to conduct further studies at the regional level by exploring the local ecosystems. Currently, I am exploring the underlying reasons and processes of firms’ international partnerships in a regional context.
