CONFERENCE THEME
The 34th Annual Scientific Meeting theme is “Humanizing technologies for a better society. Purpose-driven innovation to empower people”. Our annual meeting will be dedicated to gain a better understanding of the complex relationship between people, communities and technologies. The overall objective of the discussion is to propose and analyze new models of innovation, technology development and adoption conceived to mitigate the unintended consequences of innovation, to better respond to societal grand-challenges and to accelerate the transition towards more sustainable and inclusive economic and industrial paradigms. There is a pressing need to rethink and reshape the current model of innovation, driven by the idea of superperformance and superfunctionality of technology and the imperative of profit maximisation for shareholders, and move instead towards a more balanced model, centred on the social dividends of technology that fully reconciles the human, social and environmental implications of industrial production with the economic and financial ones. The ambition of the conference is to anticipate a near-term future in which sustainability and innovation will converge in a unique, single and undetachable meaning, enabling deep-purpose business models and sustainable growth.
The following research streams are particularly relevant to this extent:
- Models and approaches aimed at introducing a human-centred perspective into innovation models
- Innovation approaches aimed at contrasting inequalities, taking care of disadvantaged individuals and in general enabling smart responses to societal challenges
- Social innovation and socialtech
- Data for good
- Innovation, competition and industrial dynamics for collective well-being
- Finance for human-centred and inclusive innovation
- Models and methods for the design and management of regenerative and resilient industrial supply chains
- Collaborative and distributed manufacturing models enabled by digital platforms for more sustainable production systems
- Person-centred digital factory model
