At LiveWIRED, We’re Celebrating 30 Years of Tech (and Looking Into the Future)
Wired30 years ago, the founding editors of WIRED knew that technology would change our world, but they likely had no idea how it would be transformed. That’s why we hosted LiveWIRED, a one-day event in San Francisco on December 5, 2023, that brought together business leaders, activists, experts, and leaders in multiple fields to discuss technology’s role in our changing world, and what the next 30 years will look like. Join us and explore technology’s impact on our past, present, and future—and dig into solutions and our optimistic vision for the next 30 years. Moderated by WIRED’s Lauren Goode, our opening panel features Sir Tim Berners-Lee, inventor of the World Wide Web, and Inrupt CEO John Bruce on their vision of an internet where individuals take control back from Big Tech. In this panel, moderated by WIRED’s Khari Johnson, we explore how tech companies and lawmakers are examining future existential risks and building safety measures in a rapidly evolving technological landscape.
