Creative Disruption & Societal Impact through Science, Technology and Innovation

The theme of our U-GOT KIES Autumn workshop 2025 is “Creative Disruption & Societal Impact through Science, Technology and Innovation”. This theme reflects the importance of reflecting on contemporary structural change and geopolitical uncertainy at the moment, as well as the continuing relevance of the how, why, when, and how much the development of science, technology and innovation impact society.

Papers by affiliated researchers presented this time are manuscripts under active revision, for example, being revised and resubmited to journals or else under completion for submission. Comments are very much appreciated by everyone participating.
