The conference “Technology for Good: Driving Social Impact” aims to gather outstanding academics, industry leaders and students to share insights about how technology can be tapped for advancing social good.
The conference is co-organised by the Centre for Governance and Sustainability (CGS) at the National University of Singapore Business School and Tencent, and supported by the China Association for NGO Cooperation (CANGO). It aims to catalyse dialogue and research, accelerating technology as a force for positive social transformation in Asia and beyond. The best research entries will also be recognised in an award ceremony during the conference.
Focusing on innovative approaches across the East and West, the event examines technology’s roles in addressing critical societal challenges, fostering sustainable development, and enabling inclusive growth. Through research presentations, discussions, commentaries and videos, participants will engage with themes spanning AI inclusion, ethics and corporate responsibility.
