Dear all, We are pleased to inform you about an upcoming online event organized by IG5<https://www.allianzschwerpunkt-digitalitaet.de/reputation-und-anreize/> of the Allianz Focus on “Digitality in Science”, aimed at early career researchers (ECRs). The online event "Unlocking Incentives for Future Research – Empowering Early Career Researchers" will take place on November 21, 2025, at 09:30 AM (CET). It will explore how incentive structures can influence research practices and foster a more open, transparent, and sustainable academic ecosystem. Participants will have the opportunity to share their perspectives on how the German academic landscape can become more welcoming, resilient, and future-oriented. The goal is to amplify the voices of ECRs and encourage active participation. We warmly invite you to join the discussion and contribute your ideas to help shape the future of research.
