Research Interest

 Jason’s core research focuses on two broad themes:

• Supply chain sustainability management and circular economy, with a particular focus on customer firms driven supply chain sustainability practices and their impacts on supplying firms. This includes the explorations of the financial consequences of buyers/customer firms and their suppliers, and operational strategies for dealing with potential business risks relating to the adoption of supply chain sustainability practices.  

• Buyer-supplier relationships, especially investigating operational factors (e.g., supply chain power and operational resources) in the context of group purchasing and industry networks.
