Opening Plenary | Innovations Driving New Industry Disruption and Emergence

Particularly in the last few years, we have witnessed the rise of innovations that have disrupted existing industries as well of those that have sparked new industries. It has been exhilarating for some, daunting for others, and both for others. In this plenary, three renowned panelists will each discuss an innovation that is disrupting an industry or industries, leading to a moderated, cross-thematic discussion of how innovations can transform industries in exciting, unexpected, and concerning ways. The innovations that will be discussed are telemedicine disrupting the health care industry (speaker: Joseph Kvedar, MD), artificial intelligence in the consumer products industry (speaker: Renee Richardson Gosline, PhD), and electric vehicles disrupting the transportation and energy sectors (Kristin Dziczek, MPP, MS). Jeffrey Furman, PhD, ISA Innovation & Entrepreneurship chair, will moderator the plenary. All of our lives have been or will be touched by these innovations and themes in these industries likely apply to our own work, making this plenary relevant to all conference attendees.

Renee Richardson Gosline, PhD, Senior Lecturer in the Management Science group at the MIT Sloan School of Management; Head of the Human-AI Interaction group at MIT's Initiative of The Digital Economy; Digital Fellow at Stanford's Digital Economy Lab; Author of forthcoming book, "The Human Algorithm" (MIT Press); 2020 Thinkers50 Radar List of thinkers who are "putting a dent in the universe". 

Joseph Kvedar, MD, Professor, Harvard Medical School; Senior Advisor, Virtual Care, Mass General Brigham; Chair of the Board of the American Telemedicine Association; Athurd of "The New Mobile Age: how Technology Will Extend the Healthspan and Optimize the Lifespan (2017)", Editor, npj Digital Medicine, a Nature Research Journal.

Kristin Dziczek, MPP, MS, Policy Advisor at the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago; former senior vice president of research at the Center for Automotive Research (CAR) from 2005-former associate director of the Michigan Manufacturing Technology Center.

Innovation and Entrepreneurship in New Space Industries 

The space sector is currently undergoing a paradigmatic shift. What used to be the exclusive domain of two superpowers twenty years ago is now being democratized and made accessible to established organizations and entrepreneurs from both developed and emerging countries. This new space era is a vibrant environment for technological innovation and entrepreneurship translating science fiction into reality and creating a sustainable future for our planet. It is being shaped by major technological advances in launch vehicles, satellites, robotics, telecommunications and new business models around space tourism, space habitats, lunar and interplanetary exploration, and even management of space debris. However, like any era of major technological disruption, it is subject to significant uncertainty and change. How long would it take for the emerging space opportunities to achieve fruition and for the companies to build sustainable business models around new technological innovations remain open questions? This session would provide a holistic account of how technology, innovation and entrepreneurship is shaping the emerging space sector in terms of the global business opportunities and challenges, and the future implications for our society and our planet. The panelists are global experts on market and technology trends, business strategies, public policy and geopolitical considerations, and would provide participants with a rich account of the new space era both in terms of the industry context and also the research opportunities.

Plenary | Innovation and Competition: New Rules?

Debates about the relationship between innovation and competition are not new but have new urgency in the present moment.  Prevailing notions that antitrust actions are only appropriate when corporate M&A would cause consumer prices to rise are challenged, evoking an earlier era when the concentration of power was, by itself, a reason for regulatory action.  In parallel, debates continue about whether Big Tech should be viewed as the primary source of disruptive and growth-enhancing innovations or as a barrier to innovations from smaller new entrants, echoing two different phases of Schumpeter’s thinking.  Finally, privacy is rising to the forefront of policy making, with new voices are challenging the idea that privacy regulation will “stifle innovation”.  Important differences in tackling these issues are evident across the U.S., the EU, and China.  These distinguished panelists will bring varied perspectives from the legal and regulatory arena, applied especially to the major platform businesses that affect our daily lives so heavily.
