Answering questions of strategic importance to the digital society.

A research lab within the W. P. Carey School of Business at Arizona State University, the Digital Society Initiative (DSI) fosters better collaborations with the industry to answer questions of strategic importance to the digital society through vigorous academic and applied research. Recognizing that the future societal prosperity will be defined by how we creatively use, deploy, and assimilate digital technologies across all the sectors of the economy and by how the culture norms is shaped by this paradigm shift, we focus on a number of related, high-impact topics.
