I am a political economist with 20 years of experience working at the intersection of technology markets, corporate strategy, and government policy, mainly at the international level.
Steven Weber, a Professor at the U.C. Berkeley School of Information, works at the intersection of technology markets, intellectual property regimes and international politics. His research, teaching and advisory work for the last decade have focused on the political economy of knowledge intensive industries, with special attention to health care, information technology, software and global political economy issues relating to competitiveness. He is also a frequent contributor to scholarly and public debates on international relations and US foreign policy. Over the last 20 years Weber has advised multinational companies, government agencies and non-profit organizations on risk analysis, strategy and business forecasting in the areas of international political risk, technology, and global economic change. His books include The Success of Open Source, The End of Arrogance: America in the Global Competition of Ideas (with Bruce Jentleson) and Deviant Globalization: Black Market Economy in the 21st Century (with Jesse Goldhammer and Nils Gilman). His most recent book (October 2019) is Bloc by Bloc: How to Organize a Global Enterprise for the New Regional Order.
