About

Dr. G. Shankaranarayanan is a leading scholar in supply chain management and information systems, with a particular focus on the transformative potential of emerging technologies. His research primarily explores the strategic adoption and governance of blockchain technology within complex supply chains, often applying game-theoretic frameworks to model stakeholder behavior. His most cited work, "Blockchain adoption in the supply chain – a game theoretic perspective: the case of the diamond industry" (2023), provides a pioneering analysis of how blockchain can overcome adoption barriers in high-value, trust-dependent industries. By examining the gem-diamond sector, Dr. Shankaranarayanan identifies actionable strategies for blockchain providers and beneficiaries, offering a blueprint for decentralized ledger implementation in contexts plagued by provenance and ethical sourcing concerns. This case study, with 4 citations, has already informed both academic discourse and industry practice. His contributions bridge theoretical modeling and real-world application, making him a key voice in understanding how blockchain can reshape supply chain transparency and trust.
