The DigiMeet 2025 digitisation research and network meeting takes place online this year. It will focus on the topic of “Platform Governance & Power”. Doctoral students and postdoctoral researchers are invited to present their work.
This interdisciplinary event aims to provide a forum for young researchers focusing on digitalization. DigiMeet offers opportunities for networking, presenting findings, exchanging ideas, and gathering inspiration for new and, ideally, collaborative research projects.
