The concentration of wealth of the “Big 5” tech titans is unheard of in human history. 

Without question, their work contributes to advancing our society in terms of technology, innovation, and communications. But to anyone paying attention, there’s also a dark side. 

Should we be concerned?

  • When our personal data is exchanged for  free email, storage space and other digital perks
  • When some social media posts are censored and others not
  • When these ultra large and wealthy companies and founders don’t PAY TAX! 
  • Do we fully understand what we are giving up for convenience? 

Who’s leading the conversation on morality and ethics around the infinite power and influence of the tech titans? Has the train left the station completely? 

Join us with Mateo Urquijo, Head of Performance, Service, & Strategy at Standard Life. This promises to be a no-holds-barred conversation looking at the underbelly of the beast and what needs to change for the tech titans to leave a positive legacy to our ecosystem.
