The power of positivity to combat tech toxicity

As passionate as we are about tech and innovation, there’s no doubt that many consumers question their relationship with technology. Join us for a conversation featuring one of the greatest A-league footballers to ever play, Rio Ferdinand, who alongside Sue Fenessy, founder of WeAre8, examine the fact that conspiracy theories, cyber bullying, and increasing sophisticated deep fake technologies are eroding consumer confidence in the internet as a place for trusted advice and nuanced debate.​

In this session, we’ll explore how brands and creators have a unique opportunity to combat toxicity through the power of positivity - connecting content, empathy and technology to deliver positive messaging to those who need it most in the right moment.
