It is a great opportunity for me to share the inspiring life of Vikram Sarabhai who was at the same time a scientist, an innovator, an educator, an institution builder, a contributor to management technology and a patron of the arts. It is really challenging to do justice in summarizing his multi-dimensional personality in one lecture. Although his contribution is significantly recognized as father of Indian Space Programme, he was one of builders of modern India. He created not less than 40 institutions and agencies in the diverse fields as science, industry, management, and education.
I have planned to touch some special aspects of multi dimensional personality of Dr. Sarabhai who was instrumental in building modern India. His efforts to take benefits of science & technology to common people was driven by his conviction of life. As a scientist he always emphasized to innovate and create as per need of community. In the later of lecture, I will spend some time talking about mission Chandrayaan-2 emphasizing on complexity of soft landing and later developments after losing contact with Lander Vikram.

Ilkka Kakko, Jari Kaivo-oja, Kari Mikkelä:
“How to Support and Develop the Innovation-oriented Entrepreneurship in Turbulent VUCA conditions?”
The most urgent problems of our times – concerning innovation management processes – are complex and turbulent in nature. In this article we define the vucability approach to innovation management. The VUCA refers to volatile (V), uncertain (U), complex (C) and ambiguous (A) times we are today facing. Many innovation management models do not take these Postnormal Era requirements into consideration. Uncertain and complex VUCA conditions are the fundamental reason to elaborate a new approach for innovation management. Our novel approach focuses in three essential dimensions of innovation management: (1) the density of serendipity thinking, (2) platform utilisation (including business model variety) and (3) innovation ecosystem. We claim that in the evolutionary development of science and technology parks (STPs), professionals on innovation management and governance should aim to highest sophistication in these three critical fields of innovation management. In this paper we present the foundations of the ‘vucability’ approach. We also note that in the development of STPs, professionals should evaluate the sophistication level of serendipity thinking, platform utilisation and innovation ecosystem development. Systemic evaluation and development activities will lead eventually to the highest level of vucability excellence. The evaluation and mapping system (EMS-VUCA 1.0) of the vucability approach will be presented in a robust form in our article.

0x01 - Newton's Third Law: Static vs. Dynamic AbusersOWASP Beja
f you offer a service on the web, odds are that someone will abuse it. Be it an API, a SaaS, a PaaS, or even a static website, someone somewhere will try to figure out a way to use it to their own needs. In this talk we'll compare measures that are effective against static attackers and how to battle a dynamic attacker who adapts to your counter-measures.

This presentation, created by Syed Faiz ul Hassan, explores the profound influence of media on public perception and behavior. It delves into the evolution of media from oral traditions to modern digital and social media platforms. Key topics include the role of media in information propagation, socialization, crisis awareness, globalization, and education. The presentation also examines media influence through agenda setting, propaganda, and manipulative techniques used by advertisers and marketers. Furthermore, it highlights the impact of surveillance enabled by media technologies on personal behavior and preferences. Through this comprehensive overview, the presentation aims to shed light on how media shapes collective consciousness and public opinion.

8. “To create conditions under which
science and scientists can be applied
to the real problems of society, we
must encourage scientists to interest
themselves in problems outside their
fields of specialization. To be sure,
the opinion of a scientist should not be
given special weight in fields other
than his own. However, a person who
has imbibed the ways of science
injects a new viewpoint into a situation;
hopefully, he may also offer a degree
of enlightenment on the approach to
problems, and thus provides a
valuable kind of leadership.”
9. “In implementing change,
we must apply ourselves to
people before we
can apply ourselves to
problems. The biggest
obstacle to innovation most
often arises from social
factors within organizations
rather than from the
absence of technological
know-how or equipment..”
10. “A person who has imbibed the ways of science injects into a situation a new
way of looking at it, hopefully perhaps a degree of enlightenment with
regard to the approach to problems and this provide leadership which is
valuable … Through experience we know the conditions of work in India
within our own specialized scientefic fields rarely match the facilities availble
in several other countries ... Some get frustrated striving against heavy odds.
Others leave country. But those that can apply their insights to the problems
of the community and of the nation discover an exciting area of activity
where effort is rewarding even while the result show slowly.”
Vikram Sarabhai, May 1966,
International Symposium of Science & Society in South Asia
at Rockefeller University, New York
11. “There is need to understand that there is a shift from simple to complex
technologies, from stability to Innovation, from experience based knowledge
and skills to highly conceptual knowledge. The understanding of this change
means the recognition of socio-technical systems rather than a mechanistic
organisation structure, the recognition that highly trained and professional
groups have different needs and motivations, the realisation that hierarchical
structures and systems need to be minimised and that the concept of control
is inherent and contained in professional commitments rather than exercised
from outside.”
Vikram Sarabhai, December 1967,
Bhabha Memorial Lecture
at Institution of Telecommunication Engineers, New Delhi
