Digital Shape: creating capacity to support digital innovation in AHSS

Digital SHAPE is a joint meeting of ASPECT, ASTP and Praxis Auril, hosted by Cambridge Enterprise.
This one-day, in-person meeting focuses on Digital Innovation in the context of knowledge transfer in the Social Sciences, Humanities, and the Arts (‘SHAPE’).
Digital Innovation is increasingly a buzzword in academic research circles and with funders and investors, and is also becoming prevalent for the work of knowledge exchange and transfer.
The SSHA community now provides a growing sample of case studies in which SSHA impact has rested upon Digital Innovation, either in the initial research stage or in the translational stage. Such innovations may for instance take the form of software algorithms, user interfaces, data, web and mobile applications, or computer games.
What are the challenges and opportunities represented by the turn to digital innovation in SSHA knowledge exchange?
Join us in the beautiful city of Cambridge, UK for a day of inspiring panels and practical discussion sessions, with speakers drawn from the networks of ASTP, Praxis Auril and ASPECT.
The event is free to attend. Places are limited and a proportion of registrations are reserved for current members of Praxis Auril, ASTP and ASPECT.
