Technology and Human Capital: New Business and Competitiveness Models
2016 conference is dedicated to New business models / competitive advantages in the era of big data: how to integrate global ubiquitous technology and human capital.
October 17th, 2015. The Economist warns of the challenge raised by the ‘machines’ to knowledge workers. The “ability to advance the frontiers of knowledge” is no longer an exclusive privilege of highly paid professionals, they argue.
In this possible scenario, where technology is global and increasingly more ubiquitous, where the Internet of Things allows completely different possibilities, the question is: how should companies adapt their business models to integrate technological development while valuing human capital? This is the specific challenge of our 2016 conference, and perspectives are sought from multidisciplinary fields.
