Regulating Tech
with Dr. Mohammad Rahman
Daniels School Chair in Management

100 S. Grant Street

Professor of Management Rahman will address digital platforms and self-regulation, competition, and regulatory oversight.
Tech companies are the most valued firms in the current economy. Their success is attributed to their platform business model. The economics of platforms is different than a traditional “pipe” business model. What are some issues to consider as we think about policies to regulate tech companies?
Dr. Rahman’s research focuses on measuring and quantifying the impact of digital transformations led by the Internet and related technologies; the economic value of digital traces (or digital footprints), especially in driving consumer behavior and improving decision-making; and the impact of information technology on a firm’s business and operational practices.
Space is limited for our luncheons and registration is required. Please register here by 5 p.m. Eastern Friday, November 10. We look forward to seeing you in Rawls Hall!
Parking is available in the nearby Grant Street Parking Garage.
