CEN Workshop

Introduction:

Research and Innovation (R&I) constantly lead to the development of new technologies, which can have significant impact on people’s everyday life, their communities and territories, the whole economy, society or the environment. The more these technologies enable improvements or change paradigms, the greater can be their impacts.

The complexity of the innovation eco-system and the normative context for new technologies increases the need for companies to develop long-term, socially attentive governance strategies for the development of innovative products.

Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI) provides a way to address the needs and concerns of people and society in order to develop processes, products and services aiming to positive societal impacts, guiding innovation towards sustainable development goals.

This event aims to:

Hosted by UNI – Italian National Standard Body, the aim of the event is to share and further develop the exemplar roadmap methodology developed by PRISMA (Piloting Responsible Research and Innovation in Industry), an EU funded project launched in 2016.

Final Goal:

To design a practical guideline to help companies to approach and evaluate the most significant ethical, legal and social impacts expected by the development of their innovative products, and to identify an RRI vision and operative RRI actions to address them.
