Nadejda Komendantova is invited to speak on "How can participatory governance methods and tools be applied for contested policy issues such as strategies of socio-economic development?" at the virtual meeting on Innovation Ecosystems. The meeting addresses benefits of existing decision-support systems and participatory modelling tools and discusses challenges for their implementation.

The meeting is dedicated to innovation ecosystems which encourage the development of entrepreneurial and research activities and facilitate the set-up of companies that could be successful in the global market.
