Emerging Technologies Speaker Series: Community Cybersecurity
Event Information
About this Event
The WindsorEssex Economic Development Corporation (WE EDC) in partnership with Libro Credit Union invite businesses and entrepreneurs to join us on Tuesday, March 23, 2021 to take part in a community focused webinar on Cybersecurity. This webinar has been designed to provide a local, regional, and global review of how the problems solved by new technologies and the internet of things can create new security risks and complexity for business and the community.
Particularly now as we navigate the “new normal” brought about by COVID-19, the global pandemic has shifted the way we do business and opened the doors for greater reliance on technology platforms to effectively carry out our day-to-day interactions. Expanding how we do business will require us to build stronger security systems.
Participants in this program will experience world-class speakers on the topic of cybersecurity will cover a broad range of information from the necessary technologies to global trends.

This event is day 2 of Emerging Tech Days - Tech Week YQG 2021 (March 22 - 28). Tech Week YQG 2021 is spearheaded by WEtech Alliance and powered by the WindsorEssex Economic Development Corporation.
