This meeting, organized by the ISPIM Special Interest Group (SIG) on "Frontiers of Impact," focuses on the intersection of innovation and societal value. In an era where "business as usual" is no longer sufficient, this event explores how innovation management can be harnessed to solve pressing global challenges such as climate change, aging populations, and economic inequality. Manchester, as a hub for social enterprise and industrial change, serves as the perfect backdrop for these critical discussions. The event brings together a diverse mix of social entrepreneurs, impact investors, and traditional innovation managers to discuss the evolving definition of "value."
The agenda features several panel discussions on "Responsible Innovation," looking at the ethical implications of emerging technologies like AI and biotechnology. Attendees will be introduced to the latest impact-measurement tools that allow organizations to track not just financial ROI, but also social and environmental contributions. A key component of the meeting is the "Co-creation Lab," where participants work together to design innovation frameworks that prioritize sustainability. This meeting is not just about talk; it is about establishing a roadmap for the ISPIM community to lead the way in purposeful innovation. By the end of the day, participants will have a clearer understanding of how to align their innovation strategies with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
