I'm Matthias, a PhD candidate in Management at ESSEC.

My research investigates questions that are critical to ensuring effective decentralized collaboration. Specifically, my studies identify interventions that solution seekers can use to (1) harness support from distributed participants and (2) improve large-scale decision-making. My investigations span various decentralized contexts, including crowdfunding and online deliberation.

Before entering academia, I gathered seven years of work experience in the consumer goods industry and with strategy and innovation consulting firms. I have an MBA with Distinction (Valedictorian) from the Adam Smith Business School at the University of Glasgow, Scotland, and a BSc in Economics from the University of Bolzano, Italy.
