Good In Tech
Rethinking innovation and technology as
drivers of a better world for and by humans
Our vision
Good In Tech main objectives are to create knowledge around four research areas and to contribute to the dissemination of this knowledge not only in academic and pedagogical spheres but also to corporations, decision-makers, regulators and the general public.
To this end, the Chair aims to create and develop an ecosystem of interactions between research, companies, students from the two partner academics and political institutions, civil society in order to raise awareness of all stakeholders on this new paradigm on responsible digital technologies and innovation.
The chair also aims to develop international partnerships, particularly in Europe, to share the issues of responsible digital innovation with international committees.
Finally, the Chair aims to share the results of academic works and debates it organizes with national and European political institutions in order to inform and influence public policies.
Our lines of research
Axis 1 – Responsible digital innovation: Which measures?
How to measure the two dimensions (environmental and societal impact) of responsible digital innovation?
How can responsible digital innovation indicators be integrated into CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility)?
Axis 2 – How to develop technologies that are responsible "by design"?
How to avoid data bias in intelligent systems?
How to develop technologies that are more explainable, accountable, fair and that respect personal data protection rules?
Axis 3 – Reinventing the future: Which society for tomorrow in a digital world?
Which society for tomorrow in a digital world?
How to reinvent the future in a perspective faithful to the Enlightenment, preserving the principle of equality applied to the connected world?
Axis 4 – Governance of innovation and responsible technologies
What are the governance mechanisms for responsible digital innovation?
What are the relevant levels of this governance: Europe, nation, company?

La publicité numérique, déployée à une échelle massive par Cambridge Analytica lors de campagne électorale de 2016 aux États-Unis, a éclairé d’une nouvelle manière la puissance de cette technique de persuasion. Bien que la propagande électorale soit interdite de la campagne en France, la publicité digitale, de par ses formes insaisissables, représente une source de dévoiement potentielle du débat démocratique. Alors que des obligations de transparence sur les publicités à caractère politique s’imposent désormais depuis 2018 aux plateformes, quelles stratégies d’influence a-t-on observé lors de cette campagne présidentielle ? Et pour l’avenir, comment réguler ce marché de la parole politique qui prospère sur les plateformes en ligne ? Ce webinaire sera l’occasion de présenter les travaux menés au sein de la chaire par Jules Rostand, chargé de mission Good in Tech, sur la publicité politique pendant la campagne électorale française de l'élection présidentielle 2022. La discussion sera poursuivie par Damien Leloup, journaliste au Monde au service les Décodeurs, et par Jean-Baptiste SOUFRON, avocat, ex-secrétaire général du Conseil National du Numérique. Le Webinaire sera animé par Christine Balagué, professeur en Sciences de Gestion à IMT-BS, fondatrice et co-titulaire de la chaire Good in Tech.
Les Data Protection Officer (DPO), chargés de mettre en œuvre la conformité au RGPD au sein de l’organisme qui les a désignés, veillent à l’ensemble des traitements mis en œuvre par leur organisation. Chargés de nombreuses tâches, en lien avec leur mission principale consistant à veiller au respect des règles relatives à la protection des données, ils et elles sont assurément le visage de la gouvernance des données personnelles dans les organisations. Qui sont ces professionnels ? Comment construisent-ils leurs compétences, leur expertise et leur éthique professionnelle ? Quelle(s) formation(s) ont-ils suivie(s) et quelles sont les exigences du RGPD en matière de formation ? Comment, concrètement, exercent-ils leurs missions au quotidien ? Quel est leur positionnement au sein de l’organisation ? De quelle légitimité et de quelle autonomie disposent-ils, et à quelles résistances se confrontent-ils ? C'est sous l'angle de la professionnalisation que ce webinaire entend apporter un éclairage sur ces questions, et interroger les conditions de mise en œuvre d'une gouvernance des données personnelles au sein des organisations. Ce webinaire sera l'occasion de présenter les premiers résultats d'une enquête sociologique effectuée par Alexis Louvion (avec le soutien de la chaire Good in Tech) auprès de DPO, pour comprendre les différents enjeux de leur professionnalisation. Se joindront à la discussion Paul Olivier Gibert, Président de l'AFCDP, principale association professionnelle du secteur, et Xavier Strubel, Professeur de droit du numérique, fondateur et directeur d'une formation spécialisée dans le management de la protection des données à Institut Mines-Télécom Business School. Le webinar est animé par Kevin Mellet, Maître de Conférences en sociologie à Sciences Po.

Les matinales Good In Tech sont l’occasion de présenter de manière conviviale les travaux de recherche récents de la Chaire sur l’innovation numérique responsable. Cette première matinale est organisée par CGI, partenaire de la Chaire Good In Tech. Elle portera plus particulièrement sur les outils pour l’intelligence artificielle responsable.
Innovation in the field of digital advertising is likely to engage the responsibility of the actors involved, advertisers, agencies, platforms and intermediaries, publishers: use of personal data and privacy, targeting and optimization algorithms and discrimination, content moderation and 'brand safety', confusion between editorial and advertising formats, dark patterns and misleading designs, etc. These issues invite us to think collectively about what is
Paradoxically, responsible digital innovation is not included in the criteria for measuring Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), even though companies have undergone a strong digital transformation in recent years, which has led to changes in terms of market models, consumer behavior, and working methods. In this webinar, several reflections will be presented and debated on responsible digital innovation, on its measures, as well as on the actions carried out within the framework of the digital responsibility of companies. The speakers are Pascale Lehoux (Professor, University of Montreal School of Public Health), Sabrina Ritossa Fernandez (Analyst, Sycomore ESG specialist), Sandrine Cadic (Project Manager, CSR platform) and Christine Balagué (Professor IMT-BS, co-holder of the Good in Tech Chair).
Online misinformation and the proliferation of fake news are a high-stakes issue not only for the future of media but also for society and democracy. With this new Good In Tech webinar, we present the academic view on these new research objects. Interventions of Emeric Henry (Sciences Po), Grégoire Lemarchand (AFP) and Manon Berriche (Sciences Po, CRI, Université de Paris).
The TransNum (digital transitions) seminar is an interdisciplinary discussion forum that brings together the Sciences Po research community working on or with digital issues. Through examples of economic, social, political, and legal transformations linked to digitization and their historical perspective, the Digital Transitions seminar provides food for thought on the impact of digital technology in all of Sciences Po's research fields
The opacity of some Machine Learning algorithms is a fundamental issue for not only the future development of AI but also society. Current Machine Learning algorithms indeed process increasingly large amounts of data, which makes it difficult to interpret their internal functioning. However, the ability to account for algorithmic decisions is a fundamental component for building a shared responsibility in AI. Many research initiatives, often called XAI, seek to explain and interpret algorithmic decisions using quantitative methods. This transdisciplinary research seminar focuses on these AI interpretation methods and the difficulty of implementing them. The speakers are Timothy Miller (Professor at the School of Computing and Information Systems at the University of Melbourne and co-director of the Centre of AI and Digital Ethics), Doaa Abu Elyounes (researcher at the Harvard Law of School / Sciences Po Law of School), Jean-Marie John-Mathews (researcher at University Paris-Saclay).
The digitization of the human resources sector has been accompanied by the creation of many algorithms that now participate in the automation of certain stages of the recruitment process (CV matching, automated interview analysis, semi-automated recruitment decisions, algorithms for the recruiter-recruited relationship, etc.). These algorithms are now a source of concern because they can in some cases discriminate against categories of the population and reproduce biases already present in society. This research seminar will focus on discrimination induced by the recruitment algorithms. Three speakers will present at this seminar: Grégoire Loiseau (Professor of Law at the University of Paris 1), Houssem Hamza (CEA at Data4Job), Christine Balagué (Professor at Institut Mines Télécom Business School).
