- Green innovation, Economic Complexity, Critical Raw Materials, Sustainable Transition
I have been a research fellow at CREF since March 2024 as part of the “Triple T – Tackling a Just Twin Transition: A Complexity Approach to the Geography of Capabilities, Labour Markets and Inequalities” project. I graduated in physics from the University of Rome La Sapienza and completed a PhD in economics at the University of Siena.
My research interests concern the study of green innovations, examining their effects and implications in the context of the sustainable transition of economies. From a methodological point of view, my research includes using economic complexity techniques and analysing patent data.
