Oz Alashe, CEO of CybSafe and the host of this year’s summit, said:
“In so many areas of life, technology delivers better outcomes and enhances our lives. Driverless cars, space tourism, and bioelectronics – to name a few – are all set to revolutionise society and our day-to-day lives. But evidently, there are challenges as well as opportunities. PeepSec deals with these issues – exploring some of the most pressing challenges and opportunities facing businesses, leaders, and society as a whole.”
Ben Brabyn, Head of Level39 said:
“It’s fantastic to be a part of PeepSec this year, and I see the summit as a real force for good. Now in its second year, PeepSec is developing a community of people interested in technology, people and security – where innovative and interesting ideas are being discussed and debated freely. There’ll certainly be a number of interesting takeaways from this year’s interviews.”
