NYU Stern Globalization Explorer

The Globalization Explorer is a project of the DHL Initiative on Globalization at the NYU Stern Center for the Future of Management. Please follow these links to learn about our team, as well as our publications, and media coverage about our research. For our annual analyses of how globalization is trending and how levels of globalization compare across countries and regions, please refer to the DHL Global Connectedness Index report series, which measures globalization based on the depth and breadth of countries’ international trade, capital, information, and people flows.

The Globalization Explorer’s Maps and CAGE Comparator™ features were presented originally on NYU Stern Professor Pankaj Ghemawat’s personal website, and we thank Professor Ghemawat for supporting our effort to continue developing these tools here. We would also like to thank Janak Porwal of Digiperfect Technologies and Jonathan Wyss of Beehive Mapping for their contributions to this website.
