Junghyo’s research is at the intersection of organization and technology management. His dissertation examines how firms navigate the emergence of general-purpose technologies, using the rise of artificial intelligence in the healthcare sector as the empirical setting. It consists of three papers that approach this question from complementary angles: entrants, incumbents, and the market for corporate control.
His work builds on scholarship in entrepreneurship, the behavioral theory of the firm, and incumbent response to technological discontinuity. Empirically, Junghyo combines quantitative analysis of observational data with computational methods.
Before his PhD, Junghyo worked in corporate research and development in the automotive industry and was a startup co-founder. He holds a BS in Information and Industrial Engineering (with high honors) from Yonsei University.
