We're a research center (<a href=") that focuses on the question: “Why do some countries grow while others don’t?”, and we study issues of economic development. We have people from a wide set of backgrounds, including economics, public policy, computer science, mathematics. Our center often works directly with counterparts in different government organizations across the world. Our software team is a is a small one (5 and growing) embedded within the larger organization of researchers and data scientists. Our audience is policy makers, researchers and economists.
Our data visualization tool (<a href=") just got shortlisted in the Information is Beautiful awards, and we're working on an even larger new section that adds a storytelling-style profile for every country in the world, where we guide you through the process of what your country currently makes and what it could be making in the future, while making some of the more technical concepts more approachable.
