Dr. Fabian Braesemann is a Departmental Research Lecturer in AI & Work at the Oxford Internet Institute and an Associate Faculty member at the Complexity Science Hub.
Fabian is also an Associated Researcher at the Einstein Center Digital Future in Berlin and Managing Director and Co-Founder of the DWG Data Science Company.
In his research, Fabian applies network and data science methods to study complex economic and social systems, including startup ecosystems, legal networks and the impact of technological change on the labour market, the platform economy, and the housing market.
Fabian leads the Science of Startups Initiative as a principal investigator. The research project aims to quantify the drivers of startup success to identify evidence-based interventions that can help startup ecosystems work more effectively and help more startups succeed.
As part of the Science of Startups project, Fabian organises scientific entrepreneurship workshops in partnership with research institutions, startup incubators and university innovation offices. These workshops teach students how to transform their research into scientific spin-out companies, with the aim of driving more innovation from the social and economic sciences.
Fabian is convinced that the understanding of complex systems is crucial for solving the complex problems humanity faces today. Therefore, he believes that the scientific community needs to promote complex systems thinking more actively in the political and public discourse, with the aim of improving the general understanding of the systemic drivers behind the economic, political and social dynamics that shape our lives in the 21st century. To contribute to that mission, Fabian engages with policymakers, industry representatives, and the general public through newspaper articles and presentations at industry, political, and public events.
He has studied economics in Berlin, Warsaw and Vienna. He holds a doctoral degree from Vienna University of Economics and Business.
