Let's co-create a more thoughtful future towards technology.

Understanding the problems of the present. Co-creating a more thoughtful future.

Around the world, an increasing number of organizations and independent voices are calling for a more thoughtful, transparent, and equitable tech future. Now how can we build cohesion among these interested parties? And how can we make sure the conversation remains open and inclusive?

All Tech Is Human: A Summit on Ethical Tech aims to convene a variety of groups and thought-leaders that are actively--but often separately--offering solutions around more ethical and equitable tech development. This will be a human-centered, action-oriented event of lightning talks, panels, workshops, and networking. (10am to 4pm, followed by cocktails.)

Speakers and participants will include organizational leaders, ethical tech advocates, tech enthusiasts, and interested media from a diverse range of perspectives. If you are involved in a non-profit organization interested in partnering with All Tech Is Human, please reach out. Additional organizational partners to be announced soon.

Attendees can expect to leave with a more nuanced understanding of the challenges facing us today, more awareness of the growing ethical tech ecosystem, and concrete opportunities to engage in collaborative efforts.
