Due to popular demand - we are organizing our 2nd Solid - Social Linked Data and Data ethics workshop. Solid can be the open source standard and movement that can resolve the challenges of private data control, data walls and data harvesting. Solid was created by the inventor of the World Wide Web, Sir Tim Berners-Lee at MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology). The mission of Solid, is to reshape the web as we know it today and bring back the power of data ownership to the people
This workshop is intended for everyone who is interested in discussing private data control, data privacy and how data can be decoupled from apps and innovation on an app level. We will deep dive into Solid - Social Linked Data, discuss current pain-points of people and society and how to build apps on top of Solid that solve these.
Everyone is welcome, regardless of background and skill level developers, product managers, business managers and UX designers.
Within the Solid platform, the individuals can decide where their data are stored and can give access and permissions to apps to reuse those data.

Business Design x Innovation Orphans
18 Nov - 06:00 PM
London, United Kingdom
From franchise models to Monsanto seeds — diversity within our marketplaces and communities is feeling increasingly limited, with monopoly like brands spreading their lullaby of sameness across borders.
We are seeing an emerging opportunity to harness business design tools and approaches built for corporates to enable smaller, more diverse and creative players gain a place at the table of the global marketplace. Untapped channels of innovation, beauty and diversity are waiting to be unleashed. It is the mosaic — we are all thirsting for.
With business design x innovation orphans, we envisioned a space to connect business minds with scientists and researchers explaining their magical ideas that most often lack market viability. We aim to make way for these players to infilitrate our systems and markets and reimagine the very fabric of business altogether, from the inside out.
Who's it for?
Business students and professionals who'd like to learn about what makes business design different to common business strategies & tools and adapt it in a context to real world innovation
Everyone interested to learn what business design is and to get hands on experimenting tools - in this session connecting the bridge between business modeling and biodesign innovation
Everyone who is tired of building another FinTech startup concept and looking to bring sustainable and social impact research and concepts to the next level
