The funding will support two major endeavors at the Haas school of business. The first endeavor will fund support for an endowed Chancellor’s Chair and the other endeavor will fund a full-time Haas School of Business faculty position affiliated with the Blum Center for Developing Economies. https://blumcenter.berkeley.edu
Solene Delecourt was chosen to fill the role of the full-time faculty position. Her background and research focuses on inequality in business performance.
