About the 2015 Computational Social Science Summit

The 2015 Computational Social Science Summit is being convened by the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University, co-organized by NICO and SONIC and is sponsored by Facebook, the NSF, the Sloan Foundation, and Syndio. This first annual summit is being hosted by the Kellogg Architectures of Collaboration Initiative (KACI), directed by Brian Uzzi, Richard L. Thomas Professor of Leadership and Organizational Change and KACI Faculty Director.

This conference merges into one, three conferences held in the San Francisco Bay area last year in conjunction with the American Sociological Association’s Annual Meeting.  rule

KELLOGG STRATEGIC INITIATIVES

Kellogg has long championed a distinctive approach to thought leadership. We know that neither the problems nor the solutions of today's business issues reside in the silos of the past — it's why Kellogg is continuing our bold tradition of thought leadership by integrating our foundational departments with strategic cross-disciplinary initiatives to advance what we research and what we teach.

The Kellogg Architecture of Collaboration Initiative (KACI), is proud to be the host sponsor of the Computational Social Science Summit.

KELLOGG ARCHITECTURES OF COLLABORATION INITIATIVE (KACI)

KACI is equipping leaders to build teams, networks and crowds that turn risk into opportunity and power growth. Having pioneered negotiations and teamwork in management, we build upon these critical and dynamic fields to reinvent executive collaboration through networks, crowds and human-machine partnerships. This initiative equips leaders with new tools that enable people and enterprises to transcend their limitations through relationships and collective intelligence.rule
