The exponential growth of social networks has opened new avenues for innovators. As the world has shrunk, diffusion of innovations has grown faster, while the number of collaborative inventions has steadily increased. But a networked world has also its challenges. The channels that allow a disease to spread are those that prevent its cure from being accepted. And, with the advent of social media, controversies over innovations have broadened and intensified, becoming more difficult to navigate.

Experts in philosophy, sociology, and history of innovation will meet online to share their ongoing research, discuss new methodologies, and communicate the latest results of their investigations.

The workshop program is available here.
