Asian Nonmarket Exchange Talks (A-NET)

In November 2024, Narae Lee (KAIST), Arzi Adbi (NUS), and I launched A-NET, the Asia Non-market Exchange Talks. A-NET provides a platform for scholars in Asia, including faculty members and advanced PhD students with shared research interests, to connect with one another and exchange ideas. We regularly host online sessions in which members present and receive feedback on their research projects. The group now has about 70 members and continues to grow.

The current organizing committee includes Aparajita Agarwal (INSEAD), Narae Lee (KAIST), and Bo Yang (HKU).

Please feel free to reach out if you are interested in joining the group.

China Research Group Doctoral Symposium

I organized this annual doctoral symposium with several other doctoral students in 2021 and continued to host it in 2022. The symposium provides opportunities for Ph.D. students and post-doctoral fellows to share China-related research and build networks among young scholars.

It focuses on business-related studies while welcoming participants from economics, political science, sociology, finance, accounting, management, data science, marketing, law, and public policy. Over two years, 22 selected papers by doctoral students from 17 institutions were presented.
