This week Susan Hasty will make a presentation “The Future of Work; Will the intended users trust the automation?” followed by a discussion.
As industries and markets are reshaped by platforms and ecosystem innovations, the social rules that define professional roles and identities will undergo massive changes due to AI and blockchain. How will these changes impact social capital, social “currencies” and community resilience?
Susan will make a brief presentation on the nexus of research regarding platform design, business model evolution & collaboration engineering and co-facilitate group discussion exploring how community resilience might be impacted by these sociotechnical and socioeconomic changes and if Social Capital research could support a better trajectory.

This event is part of our regular presentation and discussion session for researchers including PhD/master students.
These sessions are a supportive way to connect with people. You can ask questions, get advice, discuss ideas or issues, get suggestions for literature to read, or you can just listen.
Do you want to present your research? Giving a short presentation to the group can be great practice for confirmation, thesis defense, or rehearsal for conference presentations. It can really help to formulate your ideas, get feedback on your research, and discuss your project.
Presentations can be helpful at various stages of your research program. In the early stages it can be helpful to get feedback from the group to help formulate your research, and later in your research to make sense of the data and practice presenting your final results.
The International Social Capital Association is an international non-profit member-based association devoted to advancing the research on and the application of the social capital concept for the benefit of all.
