Berlin + Virtual
At the Ada Lovelace Festival 2023, we went beyond the visible to explore how we’re collectively reimagining tomorrow’s tech. What skills will we need to shape the future? How can all voices join the discourse and mold the future of tech?
Technology has become our constant companion in both our personal and professional lives. Yet, despite the omnipresence we’re still disconnected from the true impact of our technology. We see the glitz, are blinded by the flash, and keep fumbling forward to the next big innovation. But behind the technological facade stand inspiring ideas and visionary minds working tirelessly to reshape our world and relationship with technology.
