CARMA 2020 goes virtual
The worldwide situation regarding COVID-19 is currently affecting all travel plans around the globe. Although we hope the situation gets better in July, the current uncertainty prevents us from organizing CARMA in the traditional format.
Therefore, the organizing committee has decided to organize it as an online event, to be held in the same dates, 8-9 July. It will have the same format as the traditional ones (keynotes, regular sessions, opening and closing, etc.) to be the usual platform for networking, interaction and discussion.
Special issue on Big Data Research for Open Innovation
We are pleased to announce a Special Issue of the Journal of Open Innovation: Technology, Market, and Complexity (ISSN 2199-8531) focusing on the topics covered by CARMA 2020.
Big data approaches in an open innovation environment may enable the flows of knowledge and external cooperation at many different levels. The increasing availability of open and big data sources of information has drawn attention to the different research methods that can be used to extract useful information and support the creation of innovative solutions. This Special Issue will present some of the most recent advances in the application of big data-related research methods to different fields of social sciences.
Find more information about this special issue and the submission here: https://www.mdpi.com/journal/JOItmC/special_issues/big_data_open_innovation
