Glenn Magerman is an associate professor of economics at Solvay Brussels School (ULB) with 11 years of experience studying production networks and global value chains, informed by visiting stints at Stanford (Fulbright) and the Oxford Martin School. He combines rigorous academic research and policy-oriented work—having consulted through his firm Magma BV and contributed to the National Bank of Belgium—with a track record of teaching and advising across European institutions. Glenn holds a PhD from KU Leuven and moves fluently between advanced empirical modeling and applied economic advice, evidenced by roles at the European Commission and regional cultural advisory committees. Unusually for an economist, he sustains an active international career as a freelance trumpet player, bringing creativity and cross-disciplinary perspective to his research and consulting.
