Our conference theme this year is New Horizons: Shaping the Digital Future of Research in Aotearoa and our Call for Submissions is built around four key pillars:

  • Shaping new futures – Speakers from a range of disciplines showcasing researchers operating at the cutting edge of their field. 
  • Evolution of eResearch Infrastructure – Enablers / infrastructure work streams discussing the trends and/or showcasing how researchers are using developments in technology to further their research.
  • Growing and supporting our people – Speakers from a range of disciplines focused on retaining and developing talent, and building communities of practice.
  • Embedding Te Tiriti – Speakers exploring and celebrating what best practice looks like.
