Diogo Machado has been working in science and innovation policy research since 2014, providing evidence-based analysis for decision makers in public and private sectors. He has experience applying econometrics and data science methods in science and innovation research, exploring academic publications, patents and firm level data. In addition to conducting quantitative research he has written for general and policy audiences, having published policy contributions at Bruegel, World Economic Forum and at the OECD.
Recently Diogo co-ordinated an EU-OECD project in the area of regional innovation.

He has contributed to a benchmark assessment of the French programme “Le Programme d’investissements d’avenir” (PIA) and the German “Research for Sustainable Development framework programme” (FONA). As result of these assessments he co-authored an OECD policy paper on green innovation. He also contributed to the Global Science Forum project “Effective policies to foster transformative/high-risk research” as a bibliometrics and data science expert and worked on the project “New mission-oriented innovation policy” for the OECD Committee for Science and Technology Policy (CSTP).
