Reframing Processes, Organizations, and Systems in the More-than-Human Society

Politecnico di Milano – Campus Bovisa Durando

Approaching the end of the second year of the HumanTech project means that it is time to share progress and ideas to move on with our research; hence, the Department is organising the annual event as a moment of discussion, reflection and learning between us. Inspirations by international keynote speakers and opportunities offered by the new laboratories will boost current research activities.

In the morning, the event will host Peter Skillman, Global Head of Design at Philips, who will share with us his vision on the role of AI. Then we will break up into parallel sessions to present and discuss the posters of the three HumanTech research lines.
After the networking lunch, Francesca Borgonovi, Head of Skills Analysis OECD Centre for Skills, will discuss the role of skills in promoting the digital transition. Subsequently, we will be able to visit the new laboratories to stimulate research ideas and foster collaboration.
The day will conclude with a closing plenary to share the synthesis of the parallel sessions of the morning and then celebrate with a moment of happy hour and networking.
