Building Bridges Between Technology, Management and Society
FINATRAX conducts research on the application and the impact of decentralisation technology on organisations in the private or public sector. By doing so, it builds bridges between business research and information systems engineering.
Research projects
FINATRAX emphasises diversity. Our research team consists of international researchers with backgrounds in management, technology, and other fields. They share a common interest in applying their knowledge to solve the big-think challenges of the future. The group fosters an interdisciplinary atmosphere in which researchers contribute to creating the link between technology, industry, and society. In fact, FINATRAX’s primary objective is to use the next generation of IT technologies to make a difference in the world.
Digital Transformation Needs Interdisciplinarity
Decentralisation technology is at the core of the group’s work on four focus technologies: Blockchain, Digital Identities, Artificial Intelligence, and Internet-of-Things. To gain insights about these technologies’ impact on organisations, the economy, and society, we analyse them from four angles: Finance, Management, Economics, and Governance.
Application areas are structured into four strategic research directions: FinTech, GovTech & RegTech, Energy Markets, and the Machine Economy.
Community and Collaborations
Research benefits from exchange: The members of the FINATRAX Research Group collaborate closely with international research institutions, innovative companies, public bodies, and research associations.
