NOvation Forum

2nd NOvation Forum: Reimagining Innovation for the Public Good

Building on the success of our 1st NOvation Forum, this second edition seeks to challenge and expand current narratives in innovation studies, emphasizing interdisciplinary and critical approaches. It will highlight the intersections of science, technology, and society, while questioning normative orientations and exploring diverse, often marginalized perspectives in innovation discourse. In doing so, the forum will explore how innovation can be redirected towards social equity and the public good. 


The event is designed to foster a rich, collaborative environment over three full days, maximizing engagement and learning opportunities for all attendees.
