Research Grants at the University of Pittsburgh
The IBC funds faculty research at the University of Pittsburgh in order to enhance the international competitiveness of business practitioners and firms. As emerging markets become more integrated into the global economy, they present new competitive challenges for American businesses, and as technology continues to change the way business is conducted, they present new growth opportunities as well. But American business can deal effectively with neither international competition nor international opportunity unless it is globally competent. The rapid transformation to a global economy has led to a critical need to promote U.S. competitiveness, as well as to provide present and future U.S. managers in all fields with international training. The IBC responds to this challenge with a focus on Economic Integration—examining regional economic markets and how they connect to established markets, to each other, and to the global economy.
