Onderzoeksinteresses

Filippo’s research explores the role of network effects in technical standards and multi-sided platforms. He investigates how the size and the structure of networks of organizations and individuals affect their value creation and appropriation. He focuses on networks of firms during the development of standards, and firms and consumers during the adoption of both standards and platforms. He also studies the social relevance of standards in two parallel projects, one being an interdisciplinary network analysis of the standardization literature, and the other on the role of standards for adaptation to rising sea levels (as part of the ISO Research Grant).
