Themenübrsicht

topic overview

Take the opportunity and take part in the first Industry Track of our Symposium on Foresight and Technology Planning.

We are looking for exciting contributions on the focus topics of strategic foresight, AI in foresight, scenario technology, strategy development and innovation management .

The practical perspective should include concrete application examples of the focus topics - where were there possible hurdles in the course of the project, what were the strengths and weaknesses of the method , the lessons learned, and where is there a need for further research ?

The focus is on presenting your best practices on site, and there is no need for a scientific contribution in our conference proceedings. So that we can get an impression of the content of the presentation in advance, we need a short contribution . This should address the given key questions (see template on the homepage) and should not exceed five pages in length.


Your industry plays only a minor role in the selection process. Share your experiences and join the discussion with us. Send your topic suggestions in two to three short sentences to the SVT conference secretariat ( svt@hni.upb.de ).
