Buddhi Pathak, PhD

Adjunct Research Scientist

Research Areas: Societal Impact of Emerging Technology, Digital Innovation, Entrepreneurial Ecosystems Development and Policy (Google Scholar)

I am a Senior Lecturer in Digital Innovation Management at Bristol Business School, University of the West of England. Prior to this, I held academic appointments at the University of Warwick and Henley Business School, University of Reading.

My current research includes the role of digital technologies in value creation within organisations and society, the rise of digital firms and their impact on innovation ecosystems, and the societal implications of the mass adoption of artificial intelligence. I have a particular interest in how emerging technologies inform and challenge policy development in developing economies.

I am currently developing a research agenda focused on the emerging IT industry in Nepal, with an emphasis on its competitiveness and the dynamics of the Kathmandu entrepreneurial ecosystem. I welcome collaboration in areas related to digital innovation, technology policy, and inclusive digital transformation. (Linkedin)
