BSP Business and Law School cordially invite you to the next event in the
“Kaminabend” series.
Our joint dialogue format brings together research and practice to discuss current issues at the intersection of digital transformation, innovation, and knowledge transfer.
The aim of the event is to reflect on the opportunities and challenges of AI literacy and digital transformation in education, culture, and higher education, and to explore how knowledge transfer can be rethought in the context of digital change.
By combining practical insights, critical perspectives, and academic contributions, the event creates a shared space for dialogue, reflection, and collaboration.
The event is aimed at students, researchers, practitioners, and leaders of small and medium-sized enterprises interested in digital transformation, education, and knowledge transfer.
This IDTI Kaminabend will be held mainly in English.
