Closing keynote

Abstract:

We all want to become better people in a better world with better technology. But that sounds easier than it is, especially in times of exponential technology. How can we become active ourselves? In a hilarious, dynamic and abrasive presentation, Rens van der Vorst goes in search of answers.

A test to prove that you are human.
