In this episode Jamil Hasan  interviews Michael Dowling, who is a Professor of Finance in Dublin City University Business School. Before returning to Ireland in 2020, Michael established and managed the AI Business research centre in Rennes School of Business, France. The first artificial intelligence for business research centre in Europe. Building on that his research explores the intersection between financial behaviour and technology.


He has published the first studies on non-fungible token (NFT) markets, including research on the rise of NFT metaverses. These metaverses, or virtual worlds based on the blockchain, evoke memories of classic sci-fi virtual worlds such as Neal Stephenson's Snow Crash.
