Workshop on Technology Foresight | Technology Dialogue 2026 At the Technology Dialogue 2026, the Office of the Principal Scientific Adviser to the Government of India, in collaboration with the Data Security Council of India (DSCI) is organising a Workshop on Technology Foresight on 2 December 2026 at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bengaluru. The pace of technological advancement is reshaping the way economies, institutions and societies prepare for the future. As emerging technologies increasingly intersect, there is a growing need to assess their long-term implications, identify potential areas of disruption and develop informed approaches to technology governance. The workshop will examine potential technological pathways through expert inputs, interactive deliberations and group-based exercises. It will introduce established foresight methodologies and explore the use of advanced digital tools, including AI and machine learning, to assess future technology trajectories. Discussions will also consider how foresight-based insights can inform research priorities, investment strategies and national technology planning. Pre-registration closes by: 15 November 2026.
