Title

Knowledge management for space activities in the digital transformation age

Description

In this age of big data, analytics, artificial intelligence, Internet of Things (IOT) and others, knowledge management has a key role to help decision makers in today’s competitive economy, by creating communities of shared and useful information. Digital transformation and innovations have changed how employees access and share the knowledge and therefore KM processes need to adapt to the new environment, by supporting and helping the users in how they collaborate and interact with knowledge on a daily basis. Key themes addressed during the session are strategies and tools for the sharing of existing knowledge to develop and sustain new projects, the impact of the internal social network in driving innovation and creating new knowledge, and processes and technologies that organizations are using to energize their ability to learn, innovate, and share knowledge. Examples of case studies of particular interest include successful projects and innovations in the application of knowledge management, grounded research in knowledge and risk management, methods that allow data, information or knowledge exchange within or amongst organizations in support of actual programmes, and capturing engineering knowledge and information in computer models.
