10:15-11:10 / Opening discussion: Tech, democracy & the future
How does the concentration of power and new media infrastructure into the hands of a few big corporations affect democracy?

14:40-15:45 / Future of cyber security

Cyber topics are finally getting the attention they deserve – now that we’re all caught up, what will the future of cybersecurity hold for us?
Cybersecurity specialist Guy-Philippe Goldstein, consultant for WikiStrat and author of the cyber crime novel “Babel Minute Zéro”, will take part in this panel organized by Startup Estonia.
