Fabio Montobbio

I  have been a researcher at KITeS since 1998. I am associate professor of Economics at the InsubriaUniversity, Varese, Italy and contract professor at BocconiUniversity, Milan. I spent three years at the University of Manchester where I studied for a Masters Degree in Economics and Econometrics and a PhD, completed in 2001, in Economics. My dissertation was on technological spillovers and structural change. Since then, my research interests have extended to the economics of patents, university technology transfer, the new economics of science and, finally, technology and development. My teaching centres upon two main disciplinary areas: Industrial Economics and Innovation and Intellectual Property Rights. I published on World Development, Economics of Innovation and New Technology, Cambridge Journal of Economics, Journal of Evolutionary Economics and Structural Change and Economic Dynamics.
