Reuniting with an international network

In moments of crisis and uncertainty, the strength of one’s support network is crucial for effectively navigating the dangers that follow a significant disruption.  This summer, the Fox School organized and hosted a conference for international business educators, administrators and students as part of the Consortium for Undergraduate International Business Education (CUIBE). Established in 2003, […]

Getting recommendations outside of a filter bubble

Whether shopping on Amazon or watching Netflix, most technology platforms use recommendation algorithms to determine the specific content pushed to certain users. From the user’s perspective, these recommendations can sometimes feel perfect; other times, they can simply feel repetitive and digitally isolating.  As recommendation systems have become an increasingly popular aspect of technological platforms, researcher […]

The fight over CSR: why so many companies are becoming B Corps

Since the 1970s, American corporations have generally adopted a shareholder-centric attitude. As many corporations were seeking to maximize value for shareholders, however, some unintended consequences arose, including ever-widening income gaps between executives and workers and an increase in environmental damages. However, in recent decades, there has been a societal shift. Now, more than ever before, […]

Data Science Reveals the Hidden Connection between Online Influencer Marketing and Follower Income Level

How to plan prices when you don’t know what’s coming

Businesses rely on data when pricing their products. Cost of labor and material, seasonality and consumer demographic information all have a part to play. And this pricing puzzle becomes even more complicated when the products are limited in supply and have different customizations to choose from—for example, economy, business or first-class plane tickets.  Accurately pricing […]

Zoned out: The battle between business and land regulation

When a business is unable to open in a certain location, it’s not uncommon to anecdotally hear things like, “They wanted to open there, but Walmart blocked them” or “The town just did not want another supermarket.” But what exactly does that mean? And, perhaps more importantly, is there any merit to these types of […]

Relinking the supply chain: Learning from history to avoid past mistakes in healthcare

When the COVID-19 pandemic started two years ago, it exposed holes in the healthcare industry supply chain, and people experienced drastic effects. For example, lack of availability of hospital beds and personal protective equipment in the early days of the pandemic resulted in many, sadly avoidable, deaths. What can be done to minimize future disruptions? […]

Financial inclusion: Where do we go from here?

As of 2017, about 24.2 million households in the United States—25% of the population—did not have access to basic financial services such as banks and online lending platforms. Some people choose not to bank with traditional financial services possibly due to lack of trust or high costs. But others lack access because financial institutions consider […]

Cross-selling by banks helps whip financial reporting quality in shape

The 2008 financial crisis caused financial institutions on Wall Street to hold trillions of dollars of near-worthless investments. Some critics argue that the repeal of the Glass Steagall Act of 1933 played a big role in accelerating the financial crisis. The Glass Steagall Act separated investment banking from commercial banking. Banks that offered commercial loans […]
