RISIS International Conference 2023

Nov 6 @ 2:00 pm - Nov 8 @ 3:00 pm

General information

From November 6th to 8th, the RISIS International Conference will take place at Vienna TechGate  and the AIT Austrian Institute of Technology team is looking forward to meeting you there. The overall topic of the conference will be “A new generation research infrastructure to access integrated data and indicators for Science and Innovation Studies”. Throughout these three days, you’ll have the opportunity to explore demonstrations of datasets, tools, and methods, as well as research studies that have utilized RISIS data to benefit a larger external audience.

At the conference you will find:

  • Plenary sessions focusing on core integrative assets produced, specifically relevant for future maintenance of RISIS (RCF, datasets/indicators, SDGs, geography/firms)
  • Parallel sessions on more specialised outcomes from datasets and/or tools, including research studies from users
  • Policy panel – The value added of RISIS to study the economic and social change: A policy perspective
