But it is imperfect and there are problems to solve. What are we measuring? What are we missing? How do we strike a balance between &quot;the countable&quot; and &quot;the uncountable&quot;? How to we factor all impacts and not just those upon broader society? How do we absorb the added burden this brings to reporting?<\/p>\n<p>We (researchers, innovators, funders, universities) need to collaborate to solve these problems in an informed manner. Otherwise we risk less informed solutions.<\/p>\n<p>This event aims to be part of the solution.
