SPEAKERS: Robert Elliott Smith, Julia Powles, and Peter Lewis HOST: Marc Fennell Our personal data has become the most valuable commodity the world has ever seen, yet most of us happily give it away for free to the likes of Google, Apple, Facebook and Amazon (Big Tech).

So can we trust Big Tech to always ‘not be evil’? Join our excellent panel of tech thinkers for a discussion about the future use and misuse of our data.
