Rachel Coldicutt, CEO of Doteveryone the responsible tech think tank, will explain how, in business, showing that you actively consider and care about the impact of the products and services you're developing on people and society is rapidly becoming one of the most important levers for growth. She will also share some of the practical tools and resources Doteveryone has developed to help businesses reconcile big ethical dilemmas with hands-on decisions.
