Announcing new call: Topic proposal for the Digital Futures Focus Period 2023

Digital Futures is now enthusiastically inviting proposals by potential organizers of the Digital Futures Focus Period 2023, which is intended to take place in May/June 2023.

The Digital Futures Focus Period program is an ambitious 5-week guest research event that will be repeated annually but with a new topic every year. The objective is to attract top-level researchers (and their junior colleagues) by funding their accommodation in Stockholm and creating optimal conditions for exchanging ideas, expanding professional networks, initiating new collaborations, and tackling timely research challenges.

Each visiting scholar stays for 3-5 weeks and is hosted by a Digital Futures faculty. In the middle of the focus period, when all visitors are present, there will be a common 3-day workshop with additional invited speakers and attendees from Digital Futures and the Swedish industry and society.
