Discover the way a Greek Scientific Paradigm may develop an “Innovation Ecosystem 5.0”

We aim to explore how the Greek Scientific Paradigm may take flesh and bones and how it may develop within the boundaries of the next-gen Innovation Ecosystems.

As we deal with the implications of the 4th Industrial Revolution and we start designing the Society 5.0, is there a way for Greece and Cyprus to pioneer and excel on these areas? Can Greece and Cyprus devise their own next-gen “Innovation Ecosystem 5.0”?

Humanity has entered a period of heavy digitalization where platform business models cause radical reordering of traditional business, and the power is shifting from nations to networks. In this new frontier, the global network of Greeks should have to compete and partner with other networks.

We discuss these questions, with the aim

• to identify the core characteristics of the next-gen Innovation Ecosystem
• to discover what model of Innovation Ecosystem Greece and Cyprus should develop and foster in the Society 5.0
• to incorporate the wealth of experiences and capabilities of our Diaspora
• to develop bridges for connecting Greeks and cooperating in converged cyber-physical space

In this 3rd Symposium we build upon the very interesting ideas that came out of our previous Symposia – Tech Diplomacy and Involvement of Scientists in Diplomatic actions – that must be further nurtured and advanced to the next level, take shape and developed in to action programs.

We discuss these matters, with the aim
- To identify the role of Scientists in promoting our position in the global landscape via Science & Tech Diplomacy
- To identify the role of Hellenic Diaspora Business Leaders in the making of the next-gen Innovation Ecosystem
