Prof Brady's research spans two domains - marketing management practices and the future of management education with the unifying theme of technology and particularly web 4.0 and AI technological applications in practice.

Within contemporary marketing practice, her research focuses on the challenges of technology adoption. Previous studies include financial and marketing data and metrics analysis, social networking and the customer interface, and managerial challenges for data input into decision-making. Within management education, she is interested in how technology and particularly AI will change educational practices and what the likely impact will be focusing on the future of management education, particularly within business schools. Her research interests include: The role of digital technologies within marketing practice: The adoption of AI technology within management education: challenges and opportunities Data capture and management: implications and challenges: Exploring the contrasting use of customer and financial data. She has received funding for research projects; a large fund for technology and game-based learning within management education and one on technological innovations within the higher education sector with a unique focus on assessment on/of/for learning.
