Privacy is Power
Digital life offers fantastic opportunities for people, governments, and businesses, but also comes with risks of privacy breaches or abuse
Technologies can improve our lives considerably, but governments and businesses that wish to be digital successes must understand the current debate about technological possibilities versus legitimate concerns about privacy. In this discussion, trust is fundamental.
The Research Centre for Government IT and Danish ICT and Electronics Federation invite you to participate in this webinar, where Associate Professor, Oxford University Carissa Véliz’s new book, Privacy is Power, will be the subject of a moderated dialogue between the author and Denmark’s tech-ambassador, Anne Marie Engtoft Larsen.
Professor Mikkel Flyverbom, CBS, will facilitate the discussion. Watch it here.
