Speaker: Prof. Jan Korbel (EMBL)

16:10 → 16:15 Introduction

16:15 → 16:45 Making digital privacy exist (again)

Leading a modern life means leading a digital life… which is impossible without accepting that our privacy is eroded (at best) or non-existent (at worst). But must it be this way? Was it always like that? Here, we’ll consider the historical, human and technological factors defining our modern privacy expectations and capabilities. Through these lenses, we’ll search for the building blocks needed to deliver transparent and privacy-friendly digital experiences.

Lecturer's Bio:
Andrzej Nowak spent the last 16 years at the juncture of technology, business and innovation. His early experience was rooted in computer security, and shifted to more general domains while working for CERN and at Intel. Between 2007 and 2014 Andrzej worked at CERN openlab - a collaboration of CERN and industrial partners such as Google, HP, Huawei, Intel, Oracle and Siemens – and managed one of openlab’s innovation labs. Andrzej was also part of the openlab CTO office, where he helped set up next-generation technology projects for CERN. After his CERN stay, Andrzej founded a small technology and innovation consultancy as well as a fintech start-up. In the last few years, he worked in management consulting in finance and in innovation management. Andrzej’s current topics of interest include the future of identity, privacy, and money.

Speaker: Dr Andrzej Nowak
