  • 1.  Perspectives on Inclusive and Responsible Innovation

    Posted 08-02-2023 07:35

    We cordially invite you to our PDW at the AOM Meeting in Boston, Friday August 04, 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM at Hynes, Room 204

    Making technology and innovation more inclusive is essential in the face of the current global challenges in the context of sustainable development. Responsible Innovation addresses ethics, emerging technologies research and innovation governance. Both, inclusive and responsible innovation paradigms, respond to overarching societal challenges, involve multiple stakeholders in innovation processes, and are therefore a promising way for organizations to contribute to the betterment of society. As an outcome of the substantial discourse in several scientific communities, a broad diversity of perspectives on, and tools for inclusive and responsible innovation exist, without a clear overarching framework or toolbox.

    This PDW will take a first step in systematizing these tools by presenting the basics, principles and benefits of inclusive and responsible innovation, by providing an overview of different tools as well as insights into challenges and benefits of their usage. In particular, it will cover open innovation, co-creation, design thinking, life-hacks, frugal innovation, and specific tools, e.g. for involving blind and visually impaired people in innovation processes.

    The PDW creates common ground through the perspectives of open and collaborative innovation and inclusive and responsible innovation, as seven presenters will share practical experiences with specific tools. The second half of the PDW will be dedicated to roundtable discussions with the presenters and organizers and will allow the participants to discuss and experience selected tools themselves.

    If you would like to attend this PDW please register this WhatsApp Group so that we can exchange background information before and after the AOM meeting: Perspectives on Inclusive and Responsible Innovation - AOM Annual Meeting 2023
