As part of the research activities within the DIGIWORK project, project leader Assistant Professor Matija Marić, PhD participated in the 10th International Scientific Conference on Economics & Management (EMAN 2026), held from March 25 to 27, 2026, at the University of Oxford, United Kingdom. He presented a study titled “The Spatiality of Digital Work: Distinct Pathways to Attracting Digital Nomads using fsQCA”. The paper explores the spatial dimension of digital employment and applies fuzzy-set Qualitative Comparative Analysis (fsQCA) to reveal complex configurations and distinct pathways necessary for cities to successfully attract digital nomads. Key practical takeaway from this study is that cities should prioritize community-building (coworking) over mere legal frameworks (visas) to remain competitive in the global digital economy.

Događanje namijenjeno mladima s ciljem popularizacije znanosti održano je 14. svibnja na Ekonomskom fakultetu Sveučilišta u Zagrebu u suradnji s Debatnim klubom Ekonomskog fakulteta.

Nakon uvodnih riječi događanje je započelo projekcijomm filma vezanog za budućnost rada, nakon čega se razvila diskusija. Drugi dio događanja sastojao se od panela koji je moderirala doc. dr. sc. Antea Barišić, a panelisti su bili izv. prof. dr. sc. Valentina Vučković i doc. dr. sc. Matija Marić. Zatim su studenti iz Debatnog kluba Ekonomskog Fakulteta održali dinamičnu debatu na temu "AI će dugoročno povećati društvene nejednakosti".

Zahvaljujemo studentima na sudjelovanju i pomoći u organizaciji događanja!
