Douglas B. Fuller is a Professor in the Department of Business Administration of Zhejiang University's School of Management. He previously taught at King's College London, Chinese University of Hong Kong, and American University in Washington, DC. His research spans the political economy of development, technology policy and strategy, and comparative capitalism with a geographic focus on East Asia.

The lacklustre performance of most state enterprises in high-tech activities, the billions of yuan wasted in central government technological upgrading projects, and the presence of corruption around state subsidy programmes is also beyond contention. Fuller provides detailed post-mortems of ill-managed state projects, with the most rigorous treatments reserved for IC fabrication and IC design.
