Please register for the dial-in link, reminders and e-mail updates. The dial-in link will be sent to you shortly before the event. FIW-wiiw Seminars in International Economics [https://wiiw.ac.at/fiw-wiiw-seminars-in-international-economics-es-6.html] _The presentation is based on a paper with the same title co-authored with Francesca Micocci._ ABSTRACT: In this contribution, we exploit machine learning techniques to predict a firm’s ability to export. In a pure prediction framework, we train a Bayesian Additive Regression Tree (BART) on the financial accounts of 57,021 manufacturing firms in France in the period 2010-2018. We obtain a relatively high accuracy of prediction, with a precision-recall at 0.91. Then, we show how predictions could be of help in assessing a firm-level exporting score, i.e., the distance of a firm from export status. We argue our exporting score has the potential to inform target-specific and evidence-based policies of internationalization. _The presentation, when available, will be posted online after the event._ ARMANDO RUNGI is an Assistant Professor of Industrial Organization and International Trade at IMT Lucca, working for the research unit AXES (Analysis of Complex Economic Systems). He obtained his PhD at the Bocconi University, where he also graduated in international economics. WE KINDLY ASK YOU TO REGISTER [https://wiiw.ac.at/bc-e-er-503.html] for the event.

Compared to other firms operating in the same 5-digit sector, robot importers are larger, more productive, and employ a higher share of managers and engineers. Over time, robot import occurs after periods of expansion in firm size, and is followed by improvements in efficiency and a fall in demand for labor. Guided by a simple model, we develop various empirical strategies to identify the causal effects of robot adoption. Our results suggest that, while demand shocks generate a positive correlation between robot imports and employment, exogenous changes in automation lead to job losses. We also find that robot imports increase productivity and the employment share of high-skill professions, but have a weak effect on total sales. The latter result suggests that productivity gains from automation may not be entirely passed on to consumers in the form of lower prices. _The presentation, when available, will be posted online after the webinar._ REGISTRATION LINK: https://my.demio.com/ref/ONqvCLkky93dkzsO_ _ (If you encounter any problems, please consult our troubleshooting FAQ) [https://wiiw.ac.at/demio-webinar-troubleshooting-faq-c-97.html] ROSARIO CRINÒ is Professor of Economics at the Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore in Milan.
