  • Profile

    Marc Salomon is Dean and Professor in Decision Science at the University of Amsterdam Business School (ABS) and Director/Founder of the MBA in Artificial Intelligence and several other programs that combine business and AI/Analytics. His research interests are in large language models and the fair, transparent, and ethical use of AI. He is also partner/founder of LetYourDataSpeak, a university spin-off that helps companies implement generative AI.

    Before joining the University of Amsterdam, Marc Salomon was COO at the law firm Stibbe (2004-2013), COO and Director of Research & Analytics at McKinsey & Company (1998-2004), director of the Center for Applied Mathematics at Rabobank (1996-1998) and professor in Operations Research at Tilburg University (1996 – 2005).

    Salomon holds Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Econometrics from VU University Amsterdam, a PhD in Business and Operations Research from Erasmus University Rotterdam, and an Executive Master's from INSEAD.
