If you want to know …. the University of Southampton is the place to be later this month when experts from several disciplines discuss the future of work in the digital economy. Who will gain and who will lose? What can we expect from our careers in 50 years time?

Professor Susan Halford from Social Sciences spoke to lunchers at the Digital Economy Strategic Research Group this week to explain more.

“Up to 70 academics across the university work in this area, across both the social and technical side of the subject. Our research group on Work Futures also includes people from trade unions and employers. It will be good to get together and talk about everything later this month.”

The conference will take place at the Chilworth Manor Hotel, 22-23 March.
