Was für ein spannender Tag gestern am ifo Institut! 💫

Beim Regionalfinale Süd-Ost von YES! - Young Economic Solutions präsentierten Schulteams ihre Lösungsansätze zu drängenden gesellschaftlichen & wirtschaftlichen Fragen – begleitet von engagierten Forschenden, u. a. aus dem ifo Institut 💡

@woessmann.bsky.social & Oliver Falck from the ifo Institute focus on these questions:

💡How do transformative technologies affect the labor market?
💡Which new challenges arise for skills & qualifications?
💡How can we detect transformative technologies at an early stage – e. g. by using big data?

🎉We are part of the Cluster of Excellence “TransforM”, funded by @dfg.de!🎉

Jointly with @tum.de, @lmumuenchen.bsky.social, @zew.de & @mpi-inno-comp.bsky.social, the aim is to better understand how new technologies transform society & economy 🧑‍💻
