Our partnership with Queensland University of Technology means we have access to a dedicated team of researchers in Trusted Retail.
As our societies and economies are becoming more trust-intensive, the conscious design, management and measurement of trust-aware products, services and business processes is of increasing importance. In QUT’s Trusted Retail research, trust is broken down into the management of uncertainty, vulnerability, confidence and benevolence.
Led by Cisco Chair in Trusted Retail, Dr Nadine Ostern is exploring how technologies can facilitate new, trusted solutions and with this unlock previously unseen sources of competitive advantage.
Testing the research to the real world in real time, ‘The Brisbane Trust Alliance’ is a community of (trust) professionals which brings 40+ executives across multiple sectors together on a monthly base to collectively develop higher levels of trust literacy.
