Profile

Philipp Cornelius (CV) is an Associate Professor of Technology and Operations Management at the Rotterdam School of Management. He holds a PhD in Management Science & Innovation from the UCL School of Management, University College London, and a BSc in Information Systems from the University of Mannheim, Germany. Philipp’s research interests are in operational challenges of innovation management (e.g., customer interactions, product development decisions, idea selection), with a focus on platform-facilitated innovation (e.g., crowdfunding). He investigates related questions using causal estimation in combination with machine learning in large-scale data from organisations and innovation platforms. He is also a co-lead for platform research in the Dutch national funding plan for the societal effects of digitalisation.
