Interview with Emma Urselmann and Iris van Vugt

In the past six months, Dialogic has carried out two research projects for the Ministry of Economic Affairs on the theme sustainable digitalisation in the Netherlands. Technological developments are moving fast, but also raise important questions. What does this digital growth mean for the environment? How can we ensure the digital sector remains future-proof and sustainable? To address these questions, the Dutch government has developed the Action Plan for Sustainable Digitalisation. The insights from the two Dialogic studies are crucial input for this plan. Researcher Emma delved into the sustainability of artificial intelligence (AI), while Iris worked on a study concerning monitoring a sustainable digital sector. In an interview, Emma and Iris share why this topic fascinates them and what stood out most to them during the research.
