Digital and AI inequalities: What the data says and what the public think
Labour Party Conference 2024; Hilton Liverpool City Centre, Grace Suite 2, 3 Thomas Steers Way Liverpool L1 8LW
Sunday 22 September from 5:00-6:30PM
As digital access, skills, confidence and engagement become increasingly essential, closing the gap between those who benefit from digital tech and AI, and those who are left further behind, is more critical than ever. Join us for a conversation on the UK's digital and AI inequalities at this fringe event during the Labour Party Conference, hosted by the University of Liverpool.
This fringe event, on Sunday 22 September from 5:00-6:30PM, convenes a cross-sector panel of experts who will explore what the data tells us about digital and AI inequalities, and how it aligns - or conflicts - with public perceptions. Our panel will be expertly moderated by Helen Milner OBE, Good Things Foundation Group CEO, with speakers from community, academic, business, and government sectors. Confirmed speakers: Samantha Niblett MP for South Derbyshire, Prof. Simeon Yates (University of Liverpool), Hafsha Shaikh (Smartlyte - Get Families Talking), Ali Shah (Accenture), and Rob Benson (Liverpool City Region Combined Authority).
Don’t miss this opportunity to delve into the challenges and opportunities around digital inclusion across the country, and join a dynamic and insightful debate (with free refreshments!)
