Taking on the Tech Giants
New Economics Foundation
Big tech companies are growing more powerful everyday, but the fightback against them is happening at many different levels: people working within tech firms are agitating for change, cities are pushing to take back control of their digital infrastructure and people who work for platforms and unions are building power and creating lasting change. It shouldn’t just be experts and entrepreneurs that shape the future of technology - the voice of workers, renters, service users, whose lives and livelihoods will be shaped by these technologies, should be an important part of the discussion. Come and hear more in this session!
