the Intersection of Digital Transformation and
Human Capital
Conference on Economic Convergence in European
Union (ECEU) – 20th edition
Bucharest, 6-7th of April 2023
CALL FOR PAPERS
We are pleased to invite you to the 20th International Conference on Economic
Convergence in European Union, “Transforming the Future of Work: Navigating
the Intersection of Digital Transformation and Human Capital” which will take
place in Bucharest University of Economic Studies between 6-7th of April 2023.
Organized by The Faculty of Theoretical and Applied Economics, the ECEU
conference is a multidisciplinary forum that promotes interaction and knowledge exchange
among scholars from diverse research fields.
The pace of technological change has accelerated dramatically in recent years, and this has had a profound
impact on the world of work. Digital transformation has revolutionized the way we do business, and it has brought
new opportunities and challenges to organizations of all sizes and in all industries. At the same time, human capital
remains a critical factor in the success of any organization. The skills, knowledge, and experience of the people
working in an organization are crucial to its ability to innovate, adapt, and grow. So, how do we navigate this
intersection of digital transformation and human capital? How do we leverage the benefits of technology while also
ensuring that our people have the skills and capabilities they need to thrive in this rapidly changing world?
One of the key challenges is to keep pace with the changing demands of the job market. With new
technologies emerging all the time, it is essential that we continue to invest in our people, helping them to develop
the skills and expertise they need to stay relevant and competitive.
Another challenge is to ensure that digital transformation is inclusive and equitable, so that everyone has
an opportunity to participate and benefit. This requires a focus on diversity and inclusivity, as well as a commitment
to lifelong learning and career development. To succeed in this rapidly changing landscape, organizations must adopt
a holistic and strategic approach to digital transformation and human capital. This means leveraging technology to
create new business models and value streams, while also investing in the development and well-being of the people
who make up the organization.To sum up, the future of work will be shaped by the intersection of digital transformation and human capital.
Navigating this intersection requires a strategic and inclusive approach that leverages technology while also investing
in the skills and well-being of our people.
