A panel discussion on Ethics (doors open @ 630PM)

In February we will be hosting a panel on Ethics.

ˈeTHiks - moral principles that govern a person's behavior or the conducting of an activity.
This moderated panel will ask and discuss questions like:

How do Ethics come into play when searching for work?
How can we speak up for Ethics when it comes to trade-offs in our work?
How can we support making Ethics-aligned work more widely possible, rather than a privilege?
We hope to come with questions, and leave with more questions. Hopefully you will enjoy this engaging discussion.

Look forward to seeing you there.
