What If: Tech Doing Good on Purpose

Watch the Recording

 

Silicon Valley promised to democratize technology and distribute its benefits. The reality, however, is different. While tech has striven to shrink gaps and remove barriers to access and opportunity, the world is witnessing an ever-growing crisis in inequality.

We invite you to imagine a world where tech truly works for all. Watch how Benetech is leveraging technology to address some of the most critical issues our communities face across education, employment, human rights, and poverty alleviation. In a series of virtual “speed geeking” demos, experience our latest software solutions and hear directly from the project teams developing them.
