Pentàgon UPF 2021

II Jornada sobre comunicació i divulgació del coneixement

Pentagon UPF aims to bring the world of communication and the dissemination of knowledge closer to UPF's research staff, including research staff in training. Through round tables, debates, workshops and presentations of research and success stories, we will share the importance of carrying out actions to disseminate knowledge beyond the walls of the University, aimed at a non-specialized audience.

The initiative, which is presented on an annual basis, aims to become a forum for sharing practical experiences that encourages the creation of synergies in the field of communication and dissemination.
 
This year, the central topic of the day will revolve around the personal digital brand, a concept that has become essential in the current context, where the Internet plays a key role in the transmission of knowledge.
