Loved this panel and the focus on bringing ethics into the ways business operate rather than as a purely product problem!

Will #dataethics ever be part of an organisations DNA?

This is a brilliant little course by Zebra company Etrify that helps small businesses get their head around net-zero and what they can do immediately to bring down their emmissions. Recommend:

This is breaking my brain on so many levels. Speaks to the use and the limits of ethics boards, but also the sheer techno-optimism and opportunism of this idea...

💙💛How can you support colleagues going through hell in a war zone? My latest for @TheNewStack gave me a chance to look to the helpers to learn what teammates in #Ukraine are actually asking for right now.
With so much to be done, ask first. Then share.

Why do people hate Zuckerberg?
I can’t really figure it out. The guy should be admired. He built an incredible business.

Wondering if anyone has any useful and widely recognized Environmental Impact Assessments that include latest ESG thinking? Meaning, something created in 2021 or this year? Of key interest are EIAs that orgs also use at the outset of design. Thanks in advance. #planetfirst

A cool theory of Web3 is to combine users and owners. The risk is misaligned incentives between users depending on when they joined, which leads to unstable networks: do I want prices to go up or down? do I want more or less scarcity? do I defect to a new network if prices fall?

Since the 1st of December I've been eating a giant Tony's chocolate bar, which I'm about to finish. Is this the best start to the holiday season, or the worst?

🚨Really pleased to have secured a parliamentary debate next week on the #WellbeingEconomy 🚨
Our economic model is the🐘in the room when it comes to what's driving the #ClimateEmergency
We need to face up to it - and act
