Crystal Good, Enoch Liang, Tracey Bowen
February 25, 2021
Many people in the RadicalxChange community and data science arena agree that we need collective bargaining power to make digital networks genuinely democratic and transparent. In this spirit, the speakers of this panel are on the mission of uniting the world’s data producers. They are true leaders in this space and share their experiences from their everyday work for data dignity.
SPEAKERS Enoch Liang is a California-based lawyer and entrepreneur, first founding a law firm (LTL Attorneys) and then helping start an artificial intelligence software company (LegalMation). Enoch helped start The Data Dividend Project to help consumers collectively exercise their data rights and to collectively bargain with tech companies.
Tracey Bowen is the Founder of CONTROLR - an inclusive, decentralized Data Union - a Data Researcher at the South West Creative Technology Network, Mozilla Creative Media Award Recipient, and Post Grad Law student – oh yeah, and Mercury Music Prize Winner (a very, very long time ago)!
