Ali is an Assistant Professor of entrepreneurship at Warwick Business School. His research focuses on the psychology of entrepreneurship and entrepreneurship in contexts of adversity and necessity. He is specifically interested in how the cognitive, emotional and behavioral aspects of entrepreneurship are shaped by the different contexts and how entrepreneurship influence these contexts.

He is also open to future research on understanding the functioning of new ventures and their employees in adversity contexts.
