Research Interests
Dr. Cano-Kollmann's research is interdisciplinary in nature, lying at the intersection of international business, economic geography and innovation. He is interested in how both geographic location and institutions affect the strategies of firms, particularly (but not only) their innovation practices. His work explores how public policies and institutional contexts affect innovation patterns; how political connections can protect firms in risky contexts; how firms and regions co-evolve and how innovation activities affect economic development at the regional level.
He has presented his research at top conferences such as Academy of Management, Academy of International Business, Administrative Sciences Association of Canada (ASAC), Druid, and the University of Reading-UNCTAD International Business Conference, among others.
He also spent time as a visiting scholar at the Department of Innovation and Organizational Economics of the Copenhagen Business School, Denmark.
