Experientia speaks at Turin’s Technology Biennial
The Technology Biennial is a major, wide-ranging event – available online for free – that offers articulated, inclusive and accessible reflection on the increasingly relevant issue of the relationship between technology and society, starting from the most recent technological innovations, but also recalling the history of Italian technological roots. It is organized by the Polytechnic University of Turin. This year’s theme is “Mutations – Towards a Sustainable Future”.
Experientia’s Jan-Christoph Zoels and Mark Vanderbeeken will each be part of discussion panels.
