The IOTC’s Nick Zingale and Cleveland State Universities Levin College of Urban Studies hosted an event to showcase how technology can be a positive force for humanitarian efforts. In this video from the forum, hear from local, regional, and international leaders in keeping humanity at the center of technological advancements.
The discussion focuses on how local communities can ensure a mutually beneficial human-technological symbiosis and avoid the parasitic abuses of global technology companies that have come to light recently.
This panel and keynote speaker answer the challenging questions: As we continue the march into the digital world of the internet of things, smart cities, and hyper-connected communities in what ways can we keep humanity at the center? What approaches to processes and governance are appropriate? What can we learn from local, national and international experts on best practices? In what ways is our region involved and preparing?
