Good morning, this is Zelda. I am the editor of Geneva Solutions’ Technology section. I am thrilled to be sharing exciting content with you each week.
I will be live on our website next Wednesday, 2 September at 5pm to discuss our technology coverage with our editorial director Serge Michel as part of a webcast series for our launch.
Today’s features include Law Professor Jacques de Werra’s insights on Internet fragmentation and Venice's "VR expanded" settling in Geneva. |

As our children go back to school this week, I can't help but wonder how we can continue to learn and challenge the information along the way. As a journalist, I believe that behind every question or problem there is a solution, a better path to follow, to embrace the giant technological steps we are taking day after day into the unknown.
Artificial intelligence, Internet governance, connected bodies, virtual reality… all these issues are discussed in Geneva. The possibilities to dream another reality are numerous. But how can we make sure we do not forget the human factor in the process — the protection of our data, better and equal access for all, a sensitive and ethical approach to tech developments themselves while integrating the sustainable development goals?
I look forward to reflecting on what the future holds for us, with you.
