Using tech for good can power greater representation - Eric Merkow (keynote)

Big Data and AI Toronto 2020 - Main stage Speaker: Eric Merkow, Industry Manager, Technology @ Facebook This year, we have witnessed a massive call to action for leaders across industries to take a hard look at their organizations as we navigate cultural and societal changes. But what can the technology industry stand to learn from itself during this time? We know that technology can bring us together even if the world feels divided, but it needs to go a step further. We need to empower the world with an opportunity to use tech for good. This means leaning into social matters and remaining flexible, open and understanding as massive cultural movements occur. It means resetting standards and prioritizing diversity, equity and inclusion in every business decision – from policies and practices to processes and products – and taking accountability. In this keynote, Eric Merkow, Industry Manager, Technology at Facebook discussed: How to blend the efficacy and efficiency of technology with the warmth of human connection to drive genuine, authentic and positive social impact The importance of technology leaders innovating for a better future by building more representative and diverse teams How to use tech for good – from leveraging the unprecedented resources, data and aid available across technology platforms for social good – to using tech to foster creativity, increase engagement, distribute information and drive real change ------------------------------------------ Connect with us on social media: Twitter:   / bigdataaito   LinkedIn:   / bigdata-ai-toronto   Facebook:   / bigdataaitoronto   You have a question?
