Seminar on The Future of Work: Automation & Employment

26 October 2017

(From ec.europa.eu)

The Social Situation Monitor (SSM) team is inviting policy-makers and researchers to discuss The Future of Work on 10 November, at The Square Meeting Centre, in Brussels.

The world of work is going through a revolution. But how will this revolution affect our economy and society? Some say that digitisation, artificial intelligence and robots will create more and better jobs, prosperity and more convenient services. Others argue that it will only benefit highly skilled workers, larger businesses and more affluent consumers. 

The SSM team invites policy-makers and researchers to join our panel, consider the evidence and discuss its implications.  

Panel:

  • Grace Lordan, London School of Economics and Political Science.
  • Wolfgang Dauth, University of Würzburg.
  • Marco Vivarelli, Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore.
  • Ulrich Zierahn, ZEW.
  • Federico Biagi, JRC.

This event has limited capacity. To request a ticket, please contact a.vaganay@lse.ac.uk.
