Emerging Technologies and Unserved Communities

Emerging technologies will bring both disruptions and opportunities to many sectors of our economy and society. What issues must we address to ensure that the benefits of these innovations are shared by currently underserved communities? A conversation on these urgent questions:

• How can we ensure that companies developing new technologies have diverse decision-makers and workforces so that new innovations do not create or worsen built-in biases?
• What must we, as a society, do to prepare underserved communities to participate fully in this era of innovation as employees, creators and as users of new technologies?
