Keynote by Janice Gassam Asare:

The Code of Power: Equity, Algorithms, and Who Gets Left Behind

Technology is shaping the future of work—but who’s shaping the technology? In this gripping keynote, Dr. Janice Gassam Asare unpacks how algorithmic bias, exclusionary data, and silent design choices reinforce the very systems of inequity we claim to dismantle.

Blending organizational psychology, tech ethics, and racial justice, she invites audiences to confront the invisible “code of power” that governs our tools, teams, and talent. This talk offers both a warning and a blueprint: If we want a future that’s truly inclusive, we can’t rely on machines to fix what we haven’t repaired in ourselves.
