In this episode of Global Economic Press, Alex Brady delves into the realm of responsible technology, highlighting The Tech We Want's upcoming event, THE LIGHT HOUSE, which is set to take place in Austin, Texas, on March 8-9, 2025. This event aims to transform the tech landscape by focusing on inclusivity, sustainability, and innovation. Over the course of two days, attendees will experience inspiring talks, immersive activations, and invigorating entertainment, all designed to foster new ideas and solutions for a responsible tech future. The event will bring together a coalition of funders, tech leaders, and workers to co-create an alternative tech ecosystem that prioritizes inclusivity, mutualism, sustainability, accountability, and responsible innovation.

The Tech We Want, in collaboration with partners such as Omidyar Network, Siegel Family Endowment, Stanford d.school, and Black Innovation Alliance, envisions a tech ecosystem that maximizes collective good and minimizes harm. Highlights of the event include discussions on coalition building, strategizing with funders, and examining our relationship with technology. Panel topics will cover themes like "Reimagining Work, Purpose, and Solidarity in the Age of Artificial Intelligence" and "Rewiring Relationships: Navigating Connection in a Tech-Mediated World." The event will conclude with a Lights Out! Party, featuring music, karaoke, and networking opportunities. THE LIGHT HOUSE is free to attend, and more information can be found on the company's website: The Tech We Want.
