Prof. Rym Ayadi, Founder and President of the Euro-Mediterranean Economists Association (EMEA), and Director of the CREACT4MED project, along with Theo Edmonds, Research Associate Professor at University of Colorado Denver and Directing Co-Founder of CU Denver’s Imaginator Academy, participated as facilitators at the first meeting of the Social-Ecological Creativity Metrics Workgroup.
The session took place in hybrid format on 02 December 2022, and it was hosted by the University of Colorado Denver’s Imaginator Academy, the Brain Capital Alliance, the Euro-Mediterranean Economists Association (EMEA), the Cognitive Neuroscience of Creativity Laboratory (CNCL) at Penn State University and the CREACT4MED project.
The Workgroup aims to gather scientists, artists, business leaders, and policymakers to begin outlining quantitative creativity metrics in order to build stronger quantitative connections between outcomes in creativity, innovation, and workplace wellbeing. Additionally, the collected data can be used in a multi-national innovation initiative between business leaders, scientists, and artists.
