Ricardo Laverde

I took part in the multidisciplinary program in Strategy, Entrepreneurship and Technological Change (SETChange). 

My main interests are the innovation, diversification and international business in emerging economies. I study the dynamics of business innovation in an environment of intense exposure to foreign competition. I use a combination of empirical and analytical methods to understand the mechanisms of strategic adjustment at the firm and business unit levels.

Prior to joining Carnegie Mellon, I received a Master of Philosophy from Judge Business School at Cambridge University and a Bachelor of Engineering from Universidad de los Andes.
