Paul Milgrom (born 1948) is an American economist whose pioneering work in auction theory, market design, and game theory has profoundly shaped both economic scholarship and real-world policy. A professor at Stanford University, Milgrom—along with his collaborator Robert Wilson—developed innovative auction formats, including the simultaneous multiple-round auction used by the U.S. Federal Communications Commission to allocate radio spectrum, transforming how governments and firms distribute scarce public resources. His research integrates rigorous theoretical modeling with practical mechanisms that improve market efficiency, transparency, and social welfare. Awarded the 2020 Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences, Milgrom is widely regarded as one of the most influential applied microeconomists of his generation, bridging abstract theory and institutional design in ways that have reshaped modern markets.
