ICLARIS 2027: Transforming Theses into Publications, Connecting Research with Global Impact

The development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has transformed nearly all aspects of life, from education, industry, and business to governance. Amid such rapid change, the need for relevant, innovative research capable of providing real solutions has become increasingly critical. Responding to this challenge, Universitas Esa Unggul is presenting the International Conference on Law, Regulation, and Artificial Intelligence Studies (ICLARIS) 2027, an international scientific forum that brings together students, academics, researchers, practitioners, and policymakers in a global collaborative space to discuss the future of technology, regulation, and innovation. Supported by an international academic network with Arizona State University through the Powered by Arizona State University ecosystem, ICLARIS 2027 serves as a platform for generating ideas, research, and collaborations capable of addressing global challenges in the era of artificial intelligence. Universitas Esa Unggul Rector Arief Kusuma Among Praja emphasised that ICLARIS 2027 is part of the university’s commitment to strengthening a culture of research, innovation, and international collaboration to produce superior and globally competitive human resources. For students, ICLARIS 2027 offers an opportunity to go beyond merely completing a final assignment. The conference opens avenues for students to transform their theses, research, or academic projects into scientific papers that can be presented in an international forum. Through participation, students can build a stronger academic portfolio via publication in international proceedings or partner journals, whilst simultaneously expanding their networks with academics and researchers from various countries. Furthermore, students have the chance to receive awards such as Best Paper and Best Presenter, which can add value when applying for further study scholarships or competing in the global job market. The topics discussed are highly relevant to future developments, ranging from AI ethics, digital law, and data protection to fintech and technological transformation in health and business. On the other hand, ICLARIS 2027 is also an important forum for researchers and practitioners seeking to broaden the impact of their work. The advancement of AI has raised various new challenges related to regulation, data governance, digital security, and industrial transformation. Therefore, a discussion space is needed that can bring together academic perspectives, industry needs, and public policy direction. Through ICLARIS 2027, participants can disseminate research findings whilst discussing strategic issues such as: Artificial Intelligence regulation and technology governance; digital transformation in the legal and economic sectors; FinTech and personal data protection; Smart City and technology-based innovation; and evidence-based public policy. The forum is designed so that research does not stop merely as an academic publication, but can evolve into policy recommendations or solutions that deliver tangible impact for society and industry. One of the main attractions of ICLARIS 2027 is the broader opportunity for scientific publication. All accepted papers will be published in the international conference proceedings. Additionally, selected articles have the opportunity to receive publication recommendations in reputable international journals, including Scopus and SINTA-indexed journals. Beyond publication, the conference also opens up opportunities for cross-institutional and cross-country collaboration through an international academic network involving Arizona State University, Walailak University, UniSZA, and various other partner institutions. The chance to build joint publications, collaborative research, and institutional cooperation development is an increasingly important added value in today’s global research ecosystem. The uniqueness of ICLARIS 2027 lies in its interdisciplinary approach. The conference brings together various perspectives from law, technology, economics, business, and public policy. Through keynote speeches, panel discussions, and scientific presentations, participants can interact directly with senior academics, industry practitioners, and policymakers involved in developing regulation and technological innovation. This approach enables a richer exchange of ideas whilst strengthening the relevance of research results to real-world needs. To reach participants from various regions and professional backgrounds, ICLARIS 2027 is held in a hybrid format. Participants can choose to attend in person at Harris Suites Puri Mansion, West Jakarta, or join the activities online via a prepared conference platform. This flexibility provides a wider opportunity for students, academics, researchers, and practitioners to participate without being constrained by location and mobility. Amid the major changes brought by Artificial Intelligence, the need for cross-disciplinary and cross-border collaboration is becoming increasingly important. ICLARIS 2027 is present as a meeting space for those who wish to contribute to shaping the future through impactful research, innovation, and policy.
