Information Design under Uncertainty

MBZUAI · Invalid Date

Munther Dahleh from MIT gave a talk on information design under uncertainty, focusing on the challenges of creating an information marketplace. The talk addressed the externality faced by firms when information is allocated to competitors, and considered two models for this externality. The presentation included mechanisms for both models and highlighted the impact of competition on the revenue collected by the seller. Why it matters: The research advances understanding of information markets and mechanism design, relevant to the growing data economy in the GCC region.
