Examples of research questions that she is fascinated by include how emerging market multinationals transfer knowledge to their acquired subsidiaries in advanced economies; how would emerging market multinationals expand into an advanced economy; and how could an advanced economy, such as Canada, more effectively attract EMNEs.
