Jaya Y. Wen
I am an Assistant Professor in the Business, Government and the International Economy Unit at Harvard Business School. ​My research focuses on issues in development economics, political economy, and firm behavior. 
​​
I serve as the Director of Research for the China Econ Lab and a faculty co-chair of the China and the Global Economy Initiative. I am also an affiliate of the Center for International Development and the Weatherhead Research Cluster on Business and Government

I enjoy cooking, kayaking, wildlife photography, and reading contemporary fiction in my free time. Pronunciation guide: the first syllable of "Jāy-a" rhymes with "may".
