Speakers of Our #IWD2024 Event, London
WiBT Women in Blockchain Talks
A blockchain & web3 educational events & publishing platform, where the voices of diverse female leaders are amplified.
According to The Evening Standard, there are about 10 million adults in the UK struggling with basic computer skills, like using the internet, editing documents, or doing online banking.
It's interesting that young people, often considered digital natives because they're so familiar with smartphones, social media, and apps like TikTok, can still lack basic digital skills when they enter the workforce.
On the whole, UK society and businesses are adopting emerging tech but to what degree differs across the different counties and regions. Emerging technologies are providing more opportunities, if and when embraced, to create a more inclusive UK. New applications such as #decentralized finance (DeFi), #Cryptocurrencies, and #Artificial Intelligence (AI) can help drive the dial forward in this regard, giving people more power and ensuring everyone feels included. Since we are aware of these changes, we can prepare for what's coming and make plans that leverage the opportunities that come with it.
Ultimately, technology is moving at an increasingly fast pace, especially since the introduction of artificial intelligence (AI). The question is how can we ensure that no one is left behind, even here in the wealthy West aka The UK?
This year, to celebrate IWD, WiBT will be hosting a diverse panel of women founders from around the UK to discuss how we can create a positive and inclusive impact with the use of blockchain and web3 in the UK regions.
