The Workshop
A day of inspiring keynotes, demos, discussions, and networking
25 October 2021
08:30 am - 03:00 pm
Digital Innovation for Sustainable Future Workshop provides a platform for sharing and discussing about cutting-edge results and latest developments, as well as the opportunity for networking, engaging, and formulating new projects in emerging topics. The aim is to bring together inter-disciplinary change leaders from academia, industry, and government to showcase the use of digital technologies to address current and emerging global challenges on “how do tech-based innovations help achieve the United Nation’s sustainable development goals?”
The interactive workshop will start in the morning with an Industry Panel to present case studies from the industry leaders that have successfully used digital technologies to grow and expand social enterprises and drive social change. The morning session will be concluded with a set of Demos of real-life applications that are already implemented and making impacts in society.
After lunch, the workshop will continue to discuss current and emerging social challenges with a focus on implementing the ideas into practice, thereby facilitating translational outcomes.
