DAVID MEYER

My research focuses on financial and other corporate decision-makers and their interactions within and among global cities, especially in Asia. I focus on Asian business networks, especially financial, and their role in the economic development of the region. I also have studied 19th-century urban-industrial growth in the United States. Currently, I am studying the financial networks of Hong Kong and Asia, with a grant funded by the National Science Foundation.
