His research focuses on modeling industry dynamics and structural change in emerging economies, specifically the emergence of industries in the context of globalization and the green transition. 

His work aims to use innovative, data-driven methodologies, such as network modeling, to understand Circular Cumulative Causation in the process of industrialization. This has led him to work on a wide range of issues related to industrial development, such as integration into the Global Value Chain and the development of green productive capabilities.
