The National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded NYU Stern Professors Jason Greenberg, Gino Cattani and Joseph Porac a $294,291 grant to support their research on competition and entrepreneurial performance in the New York City restaurant industry.

The two-year grant will support their project, “The Cognitive Embeddedness of Competition and Entrepreneurial Performance in the New York City Restaurant Industry,” which seeks to understand how and to what extent product categories shape which products consumers compare, review and evaluate, as well as which firms they ultimately choose for purchases. The professors focus on these issues in the food and beverage industry and explore questions about product categories, competition and firm performance.
