Please join us for a fireside chat with Brad Smith, President at Microsoft, on his latest book, Tools and Weapons: The Promise and the Peril of the Digital Age
Moderated by Dean Merit E. Janow, Columbia SIPA
Followed by The Future of the Internet
As the effects of a changing geopolitical landscape spill across technological development, supply chains, and cyberspace, the U.S. and its like-minded allies must now reconsider whether they wish to push for an Internet that is open, secure, and global. Critical introspection may result in a realization that only two of the three aspects will be achievable, in which case, which one will be discarded? Experts will discuss the survival of the vision of the Internet, while weighing the current challenges that face the new administration as it works to maintain and secure the future of the Internet.
