PRESENTED BY: Peter W.B. Phillips, Distinguished Professor and CSIP Director
Innovative goods, services, technologies and business models stresstest established regulatory regimes. Often those aspects of innovation of greatest concern are incompletely or inappropriately addressed in existing regulatory and governance systems. This mismatch drives a search for new approaches to assessing risk and managing the impacts of new innovations. This talk will open up a conversation about the type of regulatory structures we want and need and how we are going about developing new approaches.
About CSIP:
The Centre for the Study of Science and Innovation Policy (CSIP) invites all students, faculty and researchers interested in the study of science, technology and innovation policy to participate in a bi-weekly research forum. Each forum will involve a quick roundtable of introductions, a review of topical policy issues, one or more brief research reports and general discussion about research strategies and methods that are being or could be used to examine various angles of the policy system. You can simply drop in and listen or offer to present some of your findings.
CSIP is initially focused on innovation challenges in the agricultural biosciences, energy, health innovation and big-data realms, but would entertain a wider range of discussions.
Note: Registration is not required for this event.
