TICTeC 2018 keynote: Martha Lane Fox (Doteveryone) - Responsible technology as the new normal
Channel: mySociety
Date: 04/05/2018

Martha Lane Fox outlines Doteveryone’s mission to make responsible technology the new normal.

What does it mean to make technology responsible, at every step of the process: the way it's developed, the way it works for users and its impact on society?

Martha addresses the challenges inherent in this approach: the required shifts in culture, the change in relationships between technology, government and society, and the new practices which will be needed. She outlines the promise of a future where digital technologies are useful, trusted and trustworthy — and why we must seize this moment to make that a reality.

This was presented at mySociety's The Impacts of Civic Technology Conference (TICTeC) on 19 April 2018 in Lisbon, Portugal.

TICTeC 2018 bought together 150 people from 29 different countries. 

It was the fourth in an annual series of conferences from mySociety, focusing on the impact that civic technology and digital democracy are having upon citizens, decision makers and governments around the world.
