Hemant Taneja & Marietje Schaake: Responsible Innovation from Ideal to Reality | Slush 2021
Channel: Slush
Date: 2021-12-06

Debunking the old-fashioned yet still predominant mindset that companies exist solely to increase shareholder value, Hemant Taneja’s new book Intended Consequences is an appraisal of a new era of responsible innovation – one where the mindset to innovate responsibly is coupled with a business model that supports it. At Slush, Hemant will be sharing his views on building market leading companies with responsible innovation and why doing so is practically a necessity. He will be joined by Marietje Schaake, former Member of the European Parliament and current Director of Policy at Stanford’s Cyber Policy Centre, who has been on the other side of the debate, keeping both big and small tech companies accountable for their innovations gone wild. Together, Hemant and Marietje will discuss what is needed to make the ideal of responsible innovation into reality.
