The Competence Field of Metropolitan Research (KoMet) within the University Alliance Ruhr invites early career researchers in the field of metropolitan innovation ecosystems and the sustainable transformation of metropolitan regions to present their research projects and network internationally at the Academic Symposium on Metropolitan Innovation Ecosystems for Sustainable Transformation – Responding to Grand Challenges on 3 September.
The Academic Symposium is closely related to the Metropolitan Innovation Summit Ruhr 2022: Creating Innovation Networks for Sustainable Transformation (31 August to 2 September 2022). The Metropolitan Innovation Summit brings together politicians, academics, and business leaders from the Ruhr and six other metropolitan regions that have undergone transformation processes towards knowledge economies: Tsukuba (Japan), Pittsburgh (USA), Tel Aviv (Israel), Randstad (Netherlands), Upper Silesia (Poland) and Greater Manchester (United Kingdom). Representatives from these regions are invited to take part in the Academic Symposium as well.
At the Academic Symposium, early career researchers from different disciplines are given the opportunity to present their research projects and network internationally. Researchers studying metropolitan ecosystems and processes of sustainable metropolitan transformation are invited to submit an abstract of 300 words or less, outlining title and content of the proposed presentation. In the abstract, you can present your research ideas, first results, or the outcome of your dissertation or postdoc project. Please keep in mind that the presentations will be held in English and must not exceed the limit of five minutes and five slides. This short presentation will allow you to gain visibility with your research and to get connected with other early career researchers and renowned scholars in the field.
The deadline for submitting your application is 15 July. For more details on the call (application process e.g.) please click here.
