Our People » Audrey Stienon
Audrey Stienon is the Industrial Policy Program Manager at Open Markets Institute. She researches and writes about issues at the intersection of competition and industrial policy.
Stienon has a decade of experience addressing questions of how to develop economic strategies, policies and institutions that advance national social priorities. Following early work contrasting regional integration paradigms in Europe and North America, she began studying the development and trade strategies of countries in Southeast Asia. Based in Bangkok, Thailand, she worked as an economist at the World Bank—where she contributed to research and reports on jobs, industries, and social protection systems of Vietnam, Cambodia, Myanmar, and China—and prepared case studies for the Lee Kuan Yew School for Public Policy (LKYSPP) in Singapore. She previously lived in Jakarta, Indonesia, during her placement as a Luce Scholar at the Indonesian Centre for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS). Immediately prior to joining Open Markets, Stienon was a member of the Reimagining Capitalism team at Omidyar Network, where she explored and wrote about emerging visions for a post-neoliberal economic paradigm in the United States.
Stienon is a Belgian-American New York-native who is currently based in Washington, D.C. She holds a B.A. in Political Science and Economics from the Macaulay Honors College at CUNY Hunter College, and an M.A. in International Economics and Development from the Johns Hopkins University School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS).
