Key Themes & Takeaways

Our event is focused on equipping leaders with the knowledge and know-how needed to create the many business benefits that accompany applied tech ethics, to help them on their journey. We will be comparing and contrasting the approaches to ethics in business and tech from a leading global brand and hyper-growth company perspectives. We will also explore how ethics has been incorporated in both company culture and operational activities, the first steps that were taken when embarking on such an initiative, and how business practices have evolved and adapted overtime.
