NABITA PENMETSA

Positioned at the intersection of technology, economics, and public policy, my work centers on a fundamental question: How can technology platforms balance profit motives, consumer welfare, and ethical responsibilities in rapidly evolving digital ecosystems? By employing economic modeling and game-theoretic approaches, I examine how market structures, monetization strategies, and design decisions influence consumer trust, safety, and privacy. Spanning subscription services, advertising-driven platforms, crowdfunding ecosystems, and various marketplaces, my research

investigates the delicate balance between short-term gains and long-term sustainability, offering strategies that promote fair, inclusive, and secure online environments.
