The Yale Digital Ethics Center is convening a groundbreaking, invitation-only two-day Summit to address the most pressing digital vulnerabilities of our time. This closed-door gathering will bring together carefully selected invitees—policymakers, industry leaders, civil society advocates, and affected communities—whose voices rarely share the same stage.
In a digital age marked by both promise and precarity, the summit will examine fragile systems, overlooked harms, and underexplored intersections that shape our technological landscape— and the individuals most at risk within it. From AI-powered financial scams targeting vulnerable populations to the environmental impacts of data infrastructure, from child safety in virtual spaces to state-level cyber vulnerabilities, these issues are deeply interconnected in ways we are only beginning to understand.
Dates: March 14–15, 2025
Location: Greenberg Conference Center, 391 Prospect St., New Haven
