Mireia Giné, Associate Professor in IESE's Financial Management Department, received the grant in support of the "AI Adoption and Firm Performance: The role of Management versus IT Teams" project. The investigation aims to address yet unanswered questions regarding the role of management in AI adoption and in ensuring the benefit of AI deployment for firm performance. It will examine the impact of such adoption on three aspects of firm performance: growth, productivity, and investment decisions. Further, the study will explore whether the impact on firm outcomes and policies stems from the AI adoption among management ranks or from the IT teams with AI expertise. IESE associate professor of strategic management Sampsa Samila, and PhD candidate Liudmila Alekseeva will support Professor Giné's research.
