Description

The future development of organisations and communities relies on promoting knowledge-driven innovation for value creation. Smart and sustainable growth relies on organizations and communities that increasingly invest in knowledge management, deal with knowledge sharing and transfer by developing social, inclusive and technological innovations within social, business and urban ecosystems. Smart and sustainable organisations and communities contribute to value creation, driving technological, social and collaborative innovation, by managing and sharing knowledge for inclusive growth. Digital transformation enables knowledge management and sharing processes, leading to social and organisational intelligence and opening to smart, socially innovative, inclusive and human-centred and knowledge-led organisations and communities, shaping collaborative as well as digital working spaces.
