Research & Expertise

The HSE Graduate School of Business held another meeting within the framework of the project "Point of View. GSB Open Lectures", organised by the GSB Alumni Relations Department. The topic of the discussion was personal effectiveness of a top manager in a changing world. More than 120 specialists, graduates of GSB MBA, GMP and DBA programmes, students of open programmes of additional education came to learn the opinion of experts and ask questions.

The HSE Graduate School of Business hosted the first research seminar of this year on the topic "Marketing research in the development of the transport complex of a megacity: results and new directions".

In December, the HSE Institute for Statistical Studies and Economics of Knowledge and the HSE AI Research Centre participated in UNCTAD eWeek to discuss the future of the emerging digital economy. One of the topics discussed during the conference was artificial intelligence and its applications in driving the digital transformation of industry sectors. The session was co-organised by HSE University.

Researchers of the HSE Graduate School of Business trained a machine-learning (ML) model to infer users’ subjective wellbeing from social media posts. Having processed 10 million tweets, the researchers compiled a rating of holidays celebrated in Russia based on their popularity. The New Year tops the list, but Russian-speaking users of Twitter are also happy to celebrate Defender of the Fatherland Day, International Women’s Day, Victory Day and Halloween. The study findings have been published in PeerJ Computer Science.
