Making a Difference: Societal Impact through Collaborative Research | Impact Conference

07/04/2025 - 08/04/2025 @ All Day - <p>Two-day Workshopping Conference for collaborative research experts and those who want to get onto the game!</p> <p>Collaborating with external partners enables university researchers to study phenomena “up close” while supporting effective interventions and knowledge transfer. As universities increasingly seek ways to engage with societal sectors, collaborative research practices are gaining attention. One pressing area that demands more collaboration is the digital transition across the public sector and media industries. Organizations in each domain face different challenges posed by the growing use of data and algorithms in daily practice and their implications for building relationships with the public.</p>
