SIR TIM BERNERS-LEE is a tech visionary who invented the web in 1989. He continues to play a critical role in its evolution as a global thought leader. While governments, corporates and individuals rightly consider the implication of AI on our world, Data and the Web are in fact the backbone of AI and are instrumental components in its future trajectory. Sir Tim can unlock this thinking.
In the context of AI, Sir Tim’s insights are more critical than ever in guiding us through this paradigm shift. He is uniquely positioned to educate on this transition, advocating for data ownership to ensure that the web and AI continue to drive innovation and benefit society in an ethical and equitable manner.
Tech pioneer and inventor of the World Wide Web SIR TIM BERNERS-LEE looks ahead into the future of humane technology. From AI assistants to data privacy, Sir Tim paints the picture of a positive, equitable tomorrow.
Over thirty years ago, SIR TIM BERNERS-LEE invented the World Wide Web and it t has changed the world in ways we could have never have imagined in Business, Education, Innovation, and Government. The way we buy and sell, inform and are informed, agree and disagree, share and collaborate has been transformed. The Web has advanced medical research, helped solve complex scientific and business problems and advanced the pursuit of freedom and democracy. More recently the Web has moved from a Web of documents to a Web of data - empowering companies and consumers, and moving us faster forward. How will the future of the Web impact existing strategies and vision? Where are the threats and opportunities in the Web that awaits us? Sir Tim discusses how he conceived of and developed the Web, and thinks about what’s next on the horizon for the Web we know today and what it may become. Sir Tim tells us more about what he is working on today to build a better web, and how we can all be a part of it.
Too many businesses are not using technology and the web to their full advantage. To leapfrog over the competition, businesses need to use new technology as a source of innovation. SIR TIM BERNERS-LEE, the inventor of the World Wide Web, is an authority on tech innovation and how businesses can harness it for competitive advantage. On this topic, the tech futurist offers insight into business strategies so that companies can innovate how they invest, connect with consumers, ,and use technologies like big data and machine learning to make bold decisions, keep up with the cutting edge and build systems that are good for users. Sir Tim helps businesses think through how existing tech strategy will change as the next 3 billion web users come online . Just as he did when he invented the Web , Sir Tim discusses the importance of innovation and creativity in a digital world. He also outlines how to embrace Data, the Internet of Things and Artificial Intelligence, corporate responsibility for cybersecurity, the role of the effective CTO, and and opens up thinking with his visionary ideas on the potential markets of the future of technology and the Web.
With leadership, society and security as themes, Web security is a constant battle. The broader tech community is in a time of an out-and-out battle between attackers and defenders. How does society assure that the same open platform of the Web will continue while being as secure as needed? There is a decision to be made to what extent this Web we create will be secure and interoperable. Privacy, authentication and identity access control centralization will become key areas for businesses. In addition, the Internet of things is on the near horizon for the future of the Web and of business. The Web of Data includes everything from bank statements, to fitness apps to mapping. Linking information across a company is hard enough. What happens when everything you buy becomes related? The ways companies are able to connect turbines or smart watches all will hinge on the interoperability of standards. Distributed applications will impact the commercial world. Companies need information to make decisions on how to support business for the future.
When SIR TIM BERNERS-LEE invented the World Wide Web over 30 years ago, he envisioned a future no one else could have imagined and changed our lives forever. Now he is looking ahead to our next, new, un-imagined future. What does that look like? What will it mean for your business and our society? Sir Tim takes his audiences beyond the technology itself, for example - the Internet of Things, Future of Artificial Intelligence, The Next Web Paradigm Shift, The Power of Data, Impact of Security and Privacy on the Web and business and into the real transformative impact these technologies are having and will have in the years ahead.
