Digital Business Cards for Economists — Connect Your Research, Policy Work, and Network
Economists work across academia, central banks, think tanks, and consulting firms. A VisiPass digital business card links your publications, policy briefs, and research profile in one shareable link.
Economics is a discipline where influence depends on visibility. Whether you publish in the American Economic Review, brief a finance minister, or present at the World Bank, the people you meet need a fast path to your work. A paper card with your name and university does not provide that. A digital profile does.
Why Economists Need a Digital Profile
Economists work in academia, government, central banks, international organisations, consulting firms, and the private sector. You present at ASSA meetings, NBER conferences, ECB forums, and World Economic Forum panels. Each setting has different expectations, but the need is the same: people want to find your research after they meet you.

Start free →Academic Conferences
At ASSA, EEA, or Econometric Society meetings, you present a paper and meet a dozen potential co-authors, discussants, and seminar hosts. A QR code on your badge or poster links directly to your research page and working papers.
Policy Briefings
When you brief policymakers, legislators, or international organisation staff, they want to cite your work afterward. A digital profile with direct links to your publications and policy briefs makes that immediate.
Media and Public Engagement
Journalists, podcast producers, and event organisers contact economists for commentary. A clean, linkable profile with your research focus, institutional affiliation, and contact details makes you the easy choice when they need an expert.
Job Market and Seminars
For junior economists on the job market or giving department seminars, a digital profile that links to your job market paper, CV, and recommendation letters is more practical than a paper packet.
What the Best Economics Profiles Include
1. A professional headshot
2. Direct email and institutional affiliation
3. Personal website or RePEc link
4. Research fields in a short tagline — "Labour economist studying minimum wage effects"
5. Top publication or working paper link
Economics rewards those who are both rigorous and visible. Your digital card should make the second part effortless.
