“(Per)forming innovation” is, therefore, the theme of the INN2023 conference (bilingual edition – PT/EN), organized by Obi.Media – Media Innovation Observatory / ICNOVA, which will be held at the Faculty of Social and Human Sciences of NOVA University of Lisbon, between February 1st and 3rd, 2023, in a programme that also intends to be innovative: a makeathon for doctoral students and young researchers, workshops and master classes, theoretical discussions, debates with professionals, hybrid sessions, artist residencies, and also the first edition of media innovation awards.
