Biographie

Moritz von Zahn holds a doctoral degree in Information Systems from Goethe University Frankfurt and a Master’s in Industrial Engineering and Management from Karlsruhe Institute of Technology. He conducts quantitative empirical research on the design, application, and impact of artificial intelligence (AI) in business and society. Moritz’ recent work examines factors facilitating human-AI collaboration, AI-driven behavioral interventions (e.g., "smart nudging"), and the economic impact of generative AI on artists.

Moritz has published his research in leading management science journals, including Information Systems Research and Marketing Science, as well as in various peer-reviewed conference proceedings and practitioner outlets. His work has earned several accolades, notably the Information Systems Research Best Paper Award. Beyond his research, Moritz actively contributes to academia through university teaching.
