Next stop on our #OwnYourData lecture series is University of Michigan's College of Engineering. The Economist magazine and other major business periodicals have touted that DATA IS THE NEW OIL and that we should acknowledge it as such. The 5 largest companies of 2017 are all considered “data companies” and rely on the mining extraction processing and distribution of personal data to garner their market capitalization or pre-market valuation. I will explore the two questions: If our personal data is a naturally occurring resource, just how valuable is it to the other +5 million companies in our economy? And, How much are people owed if they in fact own their data? Click the Pic or RSVP here
All, Be sure to tune in to my new radio show on WHCR 90.3 FM and podcast named after my next book Inclusionism. It'll be live streamed and an edited film series on my TV network Slay TV among other places. We hope to reach out to all 70,000 of you and grow the listener base as we explore the morality of inclusion across all business, technology, politics, and culture. Click The Pic for updates. "Inclusionism" is a code of equity, similar to a code of ethics, but in this case, we're talking about your ethical piece of the pie.
