The theme of the R&D Management Conference is Innovation in an Era of Disruption.
R&D Management conference - Track on the design of new industrial ecosystems
7th and 8th of July 2021
The theme of the R&D Management Conference is Innovation in an Era of Disruption. The global Covid-19 crisis has made many companies realise that they cannot operate as they have in the past. This means that Innovation and R&D initiatives emerge as essential catalysts for post-pandemic growth. In this regard areas of particular relevance to the conference theme are, but not limited to, changing customer needs, new product and service offerings, business model disruption, digital transformation and emerging markets. Crises create opportunities for both economic, social and environmental innovation manifest in the growing sharing economy and areas related to sustainability, clean technologies, energy and methods of production. Consideration may also be given to organisational factors such as culture, leadership, capabilities, processes, structures and theories that underpin innovation implementation. The conference encourages forward thinking by assessing state-of-the-art trends and offers opportunities for discussions on a broad range of innovation related topics.
Track chairs are Albrecht FRITSCHE, Olga KOKSHAGINA, Pascal LE MASSON, Susanne OLLILA & Vivek VELAMURI.
Deadline for abstract submission is 10th of March 2021. see: https://www.rnd2021.org
