Giancarlo Quaranta Lecture Series
The ‘Giancarlo Quaranta Lecture Series’ was launched in 2020 to honour the founder and inspirer of Knowledge & Innovation. Each year, we invite a scholar whose research fields resonate with Giancarlo’s main areas of interest and contributions to give a lecture and discuss it with us in an online event.
