The Chicago Angels Network (C.A.N.) will be hosting its Spring pitch event in London. The event will include a talk on data privacy by Nicholas Oliver, Founder of people.io from Founders Factory.
Event Details
Guest Speaker Nicholas Oliver, Founder of people.io from Founders Factory will provide his expert insight on the issues of data privacy.
'Giving a person ownership of their personal data will be one of the most important technical and societal challenges of this century. As artificial intelligence continues to progress, we can already see a world where personalisation of services has become manipulation of individuals - often using data that has been collected and used without a person's knowledge. These are challenges of today, not tomorrow, so what is the solution?'
