Smita Singh
Senior Lecturer International Business, Strategy & Entrepreneurship, Auckland University of Technology
Dr Smita Singh is a Senior Lecturer at Auckland University of Technology, New Zealand. She teaches a range of Entrepreneurship and Management courses at various undergraduate and postgraduate levels and degrees.
Underpinning her research is a passion for illuminating the hidden stories, how venture work and wellbeing are interconnected, focusing on the possibilities of transformation and development that lie within the silent experiences of loss, 'taken-for-granted' cultural taboos, and stigmatized conditions.
Her research has highlighted grief, stigma, and resilience in experiencing entrepreneurial failure. Her research interests also include social entrepreneurship with focus on vulnerable populations' voices and bringing forward conversations on matters often perceived as too unsettling, morbid, or dark and therefore avoided.
She crosses disciplinary boundaries to explore such topics and contexts in entrepreneurs' lives and their enterprises' work. She has published in a number of well known international journals such as Journal of Business Venturing, International Small Business Journal, Management Learning and Third World Quarterly.
Smita serves as an Associate Editor for the Management, Spirituality & Religion Journal. Her research is featured in well-known industry platforms and community engagement invitations, such as a TEDx talk titled 're-imagining failure,' RadioLive, Idealog, and Callaghan Innovation, NZBusiness and NZ Herald.

Sofia Romualdo
My research focuses on how gameful design – that is, design inspired by game elements and design, applied to non-game contexts – and the resulting game-like experiences have the potential to transform how museum visitors engage with a museum’s physical space. This investigated is supported by a collaborative doctoral award from REACT and Exeter’s Royal Albert Memorial Museum and Art Gallery (RAMM). The goal is to develop a framework that can be adapted by museums to inform the creation of rich, interactive, and gameful experiences that engage their audiences in a playful way. This framework will then be tested at the RAMM as part of my investigation, with the creation of diverse gameful experiences, such as museum-hosted game jams, gameful trails, and mixed reality game experiences.
As part of this investigation, I will study different kinds of gameful experiences in museums, from the use of full-fledged videogames as support and educational tools, to gamified platforms, to exhibitions built from the ground up to be game-like, to hybrid reality gameful experiences.

Sofya Aptekar
Associate Professor of Urban Studies, City University of New York
I am a sociologist who studies immigration, the military, urban public spaces and gentrification, race and ethnicity, and alternatives to capitalism. In 2023, I am focused on sharing the findings of my new book, Green Card Soldier: Between Model Immigrant and Security Threat (MIT Press). The research for this book has allowed me to become an expert on immigrant enlistment in the US military, including through special programs like MAVNI, the role of race, gender, and immigrant status in the experience of military work and separation, and deportation of veterans. I also write about diversity discourse in the military, topical because of SCOTUS decisions on affirmative action in college admissions, which the US military consistently opposes.
With Dr. Hsin, I have examined the experience of undocumented college students in New York. We have published our findings in several articles, focusing on the experience of understudied groups, such as Asian undocumented youth. We have also published our findings on the tensions between college staff's understandings and goals in supporting undocumented students and the students' experiences and needs. We also developed the concept of stratified entry into illegality, analyzing the role of how one becomes undocumented on subsequent trajectories. My first book, The Road to Citizenship: What Naturalization Means for Immigrants and the United States (Rutgers) contains a unique analysis of naturalization ceremonies, as well as analysis of why immigrants seek citizenship and inequities in its acquisition.
While much of my recent work is centered on immigration, I have also researched and written about gentrification and public space. My research on community gardens, public libraries, parks, and farmer's markets has been well received, and I continue to engage with these subjects as a reviewer, book review editor, and in the classroom.

He has more than 13 years of industrial experience including working for Microsoft and Samsung in developing technological products that are currently used by billions of users in different ways. For contributions to improving society through applications of embedded machine learning Dey is elected a Life Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts, named an MIT Innovator Under 35, an Outstanding Achiever in Education, Science & Innovation at the 2023 India UK Achievers Honours and a 2022 World IP Review Leader.
Dey was born on December 13, 1990, in Kolkata, India. Dey is the only child of a painter mother, Soma Dey, and a commercial artist father, Sudip Dey. He attended South Point High School in Kolkata, India and went to study bachelor's in Computer Science at St. Xavier's College, Kolkata, where he graduated with a first-class degree (2012). After graduating with a Computer Science degree Dey pursued a career of an engineer, a scientist and an entrepreneur. In 2012, Dey invented a digital QR authentication system that was adopted by institutes around the world to stop the generation of fake degree certificates.
In 2013, he moved to the U.K. to pursue a master's study and while pursuing his MSc at the University of Manchester in 2014, his parents had a car accident that made him the family's sole breadwinner. Sending money to his family to support them left Somdip with an empty bank account and he was left to collect food waste from dumpsters. This led him to co-found Codeepy, a start-up committed to co-developing the world's first crowd food-sharing platform, which was made open source. It won the 3Scale API Award at the Koding's 2014 Global Hackathon & inspired entrepreneurs around the world to develop similar solutions.
In 2020, when the pandemic took over the world and people started to overbuy groceries to adapt to the changing shopping schedule, it ran the risk of increased food wastage at home. Dey co-developed an award-winning AI powered food management app - nosh - to help users reduce food waste in the household. In 2021, Dey co-founded Nosh Technologies (nosh tech inc. - US & Nosh Tech Ltd. - UK), which provides the nosh app solution to reduce food waste at home, and he also assumed the role of the CEO & Chief Scientist of the company.
In 2022, Dey co-developed a machine learning based platform to reduce scams and malicious behavior in blockchain projects while empowering on-chain marketing. This led him to cofound Blockway Technologies (Blockway Tech Inc.).
Dey is a member of the technical program committee and reviewer of several top technical conferences on Artificial Intelligence and Electronic Design Automation fields such as AAAI, CVPR, ICCV, ECCV, ASAP, IEEE EdgeCom, IEEE CSCloud, etc. He is also an editor of numerous academic journals.

I am making significant contributions to research in this field at the University of Tasmania, and my work has received international recognition. I am the key person in the Philosophy Program at the University of Tasmania responsible for research activities on the topics of Asian philosophy, particularly Buddhist philosophy.
