From Blockchain (the distributed ledger behind Bitcoin) to the ‘Holacracy‘ management style at Zappos in Las Vegas and the intelligence agencies of the UK, this lecture will map the technology industry’s disruptive forces as they alter governance. From dreams of alternatives to hyper-liberalism, the presentation will touch on various interconnected case studies and unpack the changes being rolled out between the state and extra-state forces extending the Tech community’s infrastructure, culture and influence today.
