About the Conference

Insight International Research conference 2024 (IIRC2024)

In our increasingly interconnected and digital world, technology, especially information communication technology (ICT), has become indispensable tools for shaping the course of economic development. This conference aims to provide a platform for experts, scholars, and practitioners from diverse fields to converge and deliberate on the transformative potential of technology in fostering sustainable development globally. By exploring innovative applications, discussing policy implications, and sharing success stories, this conference seeks to not only showcase the pivotal role of technology in driving progress but also to identify opportunities for collaboration and knowledge exchange that can propel our nations towards a brighter and more digitally empowered future. 

The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, adopted by all United Nations Member States in 2015, provides a shared blueprint for peace and prosperity for people and the planet. At its heart are the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which are an urgent call for action by all countries – developed and developing – in a global partnership (sdgs.un.org/goals). As the world navigates complex challenges and opportunities, harnessing the power of technology is paramount in achieving inclusive, prosperous and sustainable development, making this conference an invaluable forum for advancing collective understanding and action in this crucial domain.

In this backdrop, Insight Institute of Management and Technology considers hosting a Research Conference – Insight International Research  Conference 2024 (IIRC2024) – on “Application of Technology in Sustainable Development”  a timely and imperative endeavour.

The Conference is organised by an internationally renowned team of academics, practitioners and industry experts. Two veteran academics /industry experts, one from Sri Lanka and the other from overseas, have been invited as key-note speakers.

The Conference will be fully online where guests and participants will interact virtually in a Zoom platform. Conference language will be English. 

Conference registration and participation is free with timely registration.
