Research Trends in Entrepreneurship, Social Impact & Education in the Age of AI

Join the I&E Academy and the Discipline of Management & International Relations at Newcastle Business School for the latest Impact by Design Symposium.

In this edition, Impact by Design turns that question to research itself. Entrepreneurship, social impact, and education are fields undergoing rapid transformation as AI reshapes how ventures are created, how social value is scaled, and how organisations find sustainable models for impact. Alongside, we examine how AI is transforming education, and what it means for how we teach and assess entrepreneurial capability.

Featuring:

Associate Professor Benedetto Cannatelli (Director, MSc in Management, Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore, Milan)

Bert Verhoeven (Director of the I&E Academy, University of Newcastle)

The event includes opportunities for questions, discussion, and networking over lunch.
