Reimagining Corporate Social Responsibility: Organizational Purpose and Human-AI Synergy

In an era defined by rapid technological advancement and evolving societal expectations, the concept of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is undergoing a profound transformation. This conference aims to explore cutting-edge perspectives on CSR through the lens of purpose-driven innovation and human-AI collaboration.

We invite scholars and practitioners to contribute original research that illuminates the evolving nature of CSR in the contemporary business landscape.

This year’s conference seeks to uncover the complex relationships between human purpose, technological innovation, and corporate ethics. We aim to understand how integrating artificial intelligence and machine learning transforms business operations and redefines the essence of corporate responsibility. How can organizations leverage these powerful tools to enhance their CSR initiatives while maintaining a human-centric approach?

We welcome interdisciplinary approaches that bridge management science, computer science, philosophy, psychology, and other relevant fields. We encourage both empirical and conceptual papers and innovative methodologies that push the boundaries of CSR research.
