Bauer Business Minds: Research for the Real World.
Bauer Business Minds: Research for the Real World - C. T. Bauer College of Business, University of Houston

I am delighted to share two articles that describe new research by Bauer faculty that have to do with very relevant business topics: (1) how to assess the economic impact of the marketing of socially responsible products, and, (2) the role of AI as a tool to enhance creativity. Our final story showcases my own experience as a Fulbright Specialist and the opportunity the Fulbright program affords U.S. scholars to have a global impact.

Happy reading!

Positioning the Product

Newly published research from the C. T. Bauer College of Business employs game theory to better understand the economic impact of the marketing of socially responsible products.

The research was conducted as a component of Hannan Sadjady Naeeni's dissertation research in collaboration with his Ph.D. co-chairs, Professor Funda Sahin and Professor E. Powell Robinson Jr. of Bauer College's Department of Decision & Information Sciences. Naeeni is now an Assistant Professor of Supply Chain Management at Longwood University.
