Simone comments,

High quality research and analysis are the foundations of good policy making. Throughout my career I’ve viewed Cambridge Econometrics’ research projects and modelling capabilities as best in class. For nearly 40 years, Cambridge Econometrics has supported governments and decision makers around the world to understand and navigate the complexities of climate change, energy transitions and natural resource management. I’m excited to continue this work and lead a brilliant team that’s dedicated to making a meaningful difference.
