Building our Biofuture: Policy issues and opportunities for next generation biotechnologies

Policy perspectives: the promises and challenges of emerging technology

Apr 22, 2024 | 8:40 AM - 9:00 AM

Description

New technologies cannot be constrained within national borders, making international collaboration essential if we are to ensure their sustainable development and equitable access to their benefits. The OECD welcomes three high-level speakers, each coming from a different continent, to provide their own perspective on STI policy challenges and opportunities. Speaking from the unique approaches their regions are taking to fostering robust STI policies in emerging technologies, the session sets the scene by providing insights into the importance of fora like the OECD and the Global Forum on Technology for countries to engage in constructive conversations and strategic dialogue on emerging technologies and their potential impacts on society.
