We're still buzzing with excitement after an incredible two days at the 15th Annual International Symposium on Digital Ethics! ❤️💛

There was something special about seeing so many people from different disciplines, backgrounds and areas of expertise come together around digital ethics: Ideas were exchanged, new connections were made, and conversations unfolded in ways that reminded us just how valuable it is to learn in community.

A very special thank you to Dr. Florence Chee, whose leadership of the Center for Digital Ethics and Policy helped bring this gathering to life. We’re also incredibly grateful to every speaker, panelist, performer, sponsor, contributor and guest who shared their time, knowledge and perspective with us.

Thank you for making this year’s symposium such a joyful, thoughtful and genuinely memorable experience. We’re so glad you were part of it! 🐺
