Final Report Summary - MEETGOV (Meeting governance: the enactment of social skill in inter-organizational meetings)
The realization of this project also contributed to the emergence of an inter-disciplinary field of meeting science, by building an international network of scholars studying meetings and related phenomena. This was achieved by organizing the first inter-disciplinary conference dedicated to meetings, the Gothenburg Meeting Science Symposium (see www.kunsido.net/gmss) with 50 participants from 13 countries. A follow-up event will be held in Copenhagen in 2019.
The project also created public awareness about meetings as a research topic through interviews in the mass media, and by facilitating discussions between meeting practitioners and researchers through the creation of an online forum (see www.kunsido.net).
