Technology: it’s everywhere, from the medicine that keeps you healthy to the computer you’re using to read this message. Undoubtedly, it impacts every aspect of our lives and is only expected to become more ubiquitous. But is more progress always better? Join us to learn more about the excitement – and ethical debates – surrounding the major innovations of our time at DayCon 2018: Tomorrow’s Tech, Today!
