The Martin J. Whitman School of Management at Syracuse University has named Natarajan Balasubramanian as the inaugural Albert & Betty Hill Professor.
The professorship was established through a $1 million gift from the late Robert S. Hill, a 1969 graduate of the School of Management, in memory of his parents, Albert and Betty (Grossman) Hill.
Balasubramanian, who holds a Ph.D. from the University of California, Los Angeles, joined the Whitman School in 2009. He teaches strategic management, firm performance, technological change, and industry evolution to both undergraduate and graduate students at the Whitman School.
Apart from that, he also conducts research focused on the economic value creation by both new and existing firms. By leveraging large-scale data, he explores generalizable trends and examines how competition, innovation, and learning influence firm entry and performance.
His scholarly contributions are well-recognized, with publications in leading journals such as Management Science, Review of Economics and Statistics, and Strategic Management Journal. His accolades include the prestigious Kauffman Junior Faculty Fellowship and being a finalist in the Outstanding Dissertation Award Competition of the Business Policy and Strategy Division of the Academy of Management.
Within the Whitman School, he has been honored with the Edward Pettinella Associate Professorship of Business and the Whitman Research Fellow title. Recently, he was appointed as an associate editor of the Strategic Management Journal.
“It is quite rare that a school installs a new endowed professorship, but when we do, it’s to celebrate the outstanding accomplishments of our best scholars and world-class thinkers who are significantly influencing their field,” said McKelvie. “Professor Balasubramanian is very deserving of this achievement, and this professorship will provide him resources to further his research and positively impact the reputation of the Whitman School.”
