The Future of Learning

17 November 2017

As advanced technologies seem to become better and more reliable at many business processes previously performed by humans, we are beginning to rethink how our individual and organisational learning will change the nature of professional work. Are the boundaries between individual learning and learning at work diminishing? How will the future of virtual and physical boundaries influence the continous learning choices for our work and life?

Workshop  http://www.kmasia.com/agenda-daythree.asp#afternoon

Open Data: The Knowledge Capital of Public Organisations
Government agencies and public organisations are one of the largest producers of data as a basis for decision-making and knowledge creation.

Public sector organisations produce, collect and share vast amounts of information, such as meteorological, traffic and socio-economic data, health and statistical data, cultural information and others. Public sector information is the “raw material” for new added value services, however, access and re-use regulations vary across the Asia Pacific region.

Open Government Data is about the creative use of this material through collaborative efforts between business, civil society and government through co-creating of new services and insights. Advanced knowledge economies such as Singapore, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Japan are developing initiatives and strategies to create an environment for knowledge creation based on open public information.

  • Open Data as public KM strategy
  • Examples of new services based on open data from public agencies across the AP region
  • Emerging open-data ecosystems and economies
  • Economic value of open knowledge flows

Rethinking Knowledge Management: Foresight in the 21st Century

The 8th International Conference on Knowledge Management

Special Session at the ICKM 2012 organised by the New Club of Paris (www.new-club-of-paris.org)

Developing Foresight for South Africa’s Knowledge Economy

6 September 2012, 14.00 -17.00, Johannesburg, FNB Conference and Training Centre in Grayston Road, Sandton

The International Conference on Knowledge Management (ICKM) provides a forum for researchers and practitioners from all over the world to discuss and exchange ideas concerning theoretical and practical aspects of knowledge management and economy.

This year the conference will be hosted for the first time in Africa, and we would like to use this opportunity for share some insights on the future socio-economic development of South Africa and neighboring countries.

The Worldbank’s Knowledge Economy Index 2012 ranks South Africa as number 2 within Africa (behind Mauritius), followed by Botswana and Namibia; and 67th in the global ranking.

How can we better understand the underlying challenges and opportunities for knowledge economy development, looking at the indicators in the different categories: economic incentive and institutional regime, education, innovation and ICT as well as national investments in other intangibles.

We have invited speakers from government, international organizations, private sector and civil society for short interventions and lively discussion among speakers and delegates.

Joining our panel discussion:

Dr. Kobena Hanson, Head of ACBF Knowledge Management Department, African Capacity Building Foundation, Zimbabwe

Zelda Roberts, Senior Specialist, National Advisory Council on Innovation, Pretoria

Ansilla Nyar, Senior Researcher, Gauteng City-Region Observatory, Johannesburg

Programme development and facilitation: Jean-Jacques Mertens and Waltraut Ritter

Creating the Conditions for Innovations: MEDICI seminar on 12 May 2010

The Medici family used to rule the city of Florence, Italy some 500 years ago. They would sponsor and train people from a range of different disciplines: architects, sculptors, scientists, philosophers. They brought them together from all over the world to Florence. There they were able to break down barriers – between different cultures and disciplines – to generate what became one of the most creative periods in our history, the Renaissance.

How can we break down barriers between different types of professional know how and expertise and see new connections?

The Medici game is a learning experience to explore the intersections of different fields of knowledge. You can find more details here: http://www.celemi.com/What-we-do/Business-Simulations/The-Medici-Game/index.php

Time: 12/05/10, 14:00-17:30.  For more details and registration, please email us at seminars@knowledgedialogues.com
