Elhanan Helpman is the Galen L. Stone Professor of International Trade at Harvard University. He holds a B.A. degree in Economics and Statistics form Tel Aviv University, an M.A. degree in Economics from the same institution, and a Ph.D. degree in Economics from Harvard University.
Helpman’s contributions include studies of the balance of payments, exchange rate regimes, stabilization programs and foreign debt. Most important, however, are his studies of international trade, economic growth, and political economy. He is a cofounder of the “new trade theory” and the “new growth theory,” which emphasize the roles of economies of scale and imperfect competition. Much of his work in trade, growth, and political economy is summarized in eight books: Market Structure and Foreign Trade (with Paul Krugman), Trade Policy and Market Structure (with Paul Krugman), Innovation and Growth in the Global Economy (with Gene Grossman), Special Interest Politics (with Gene Grossman), Interest Groups and Trade Policy (with Gene Grossman), The Mystery of Economic Growth, Understanding Global Trade, and Globalization and Inequality.

Helpman has served on the editorial boards of several scientific journals and served as Co-Editor of the Journal of International Economics and Editor of the Quarterly Journal of Economics and the European Economic Review. He is a Fellow of the Econometric Society and was a member of its Council. He delivered major invited lectures, such as the Frank Graham Memorial Lecture at Princeton University, the Schumpeter Lecture of the European Economic Association, the Walras-Bowley and Frisch Lectures of the Econometric Society and the Ohlin Lectures at the Stockholm School of Economics. He is a member of the Israeli Academy of Sciences and Humanities, a Foreign Honorary Member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, a Corresponding Fellow of the British Academy, a member of the European Academy of Sciences and Arts and a Distinguished Fellow of the American Economic Association. He was President of the Israeli Economic Association and President of the Econometric Society. He is President Elect of the International Economic Association.

Helpman was awarded Honorary Doctorates by the Catholic University of Louvain and the University of Warsaw. He received the Mahalanobis Memorial Medal, the Bernhard Harms Prize, the Rothschild Prize, the EMET Prize, the Nemmers Prize, the Onassis Prize, the BBVA Frontiers of Knowledge Award, the Jean-Jacques Laffont Prize, and the Israel Prize.
