Oliver Willamson and Elinor Ostrom will share the sum of 1.4 million dollars or 10 million Swedish kronor as they have been jointly honored as the recipient of 2009 Nobel Prize in the field of Economics. The Nobel Prize Committee has honored the two economists of the United States for their outstanding achievement in their respective fields.
In a speech, the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences in Stockholm, stated that Elinor Ostrom has given the demonstration on the ways by which the associations can make use of the common property. Referring to Oliver Willamson’s works, the Academy stated he has, “developed a theory where business firms serve as structures for conflict resolution.” Nobel laureate Elinor Ostrom and Oliver E. Williamson will now share the stand with other world famous economists who had received the Nobel Prize in the past years. Oliver E. Williamson was a professor at California Berkley University. The other recipient of the same award Elinor Ostrom is a professor of Indiana University.
As a market, women represent an opportunity bigger than China and India combined. They control $20 trillion in consumer spending, and that figure could reach $28 trillion in the next five years. Women drive the world economy, in fact. Yet most companies do a remarkably poor job of serving them.
