The Extraction Economy: Platforms, Power, and the Fight for Prosperity
Technology commands attention, data, and economy — at what cost?
Dominant tech companies have mastered a business model that pulls value from users, workers, and entire markets while eroding political freedoms and shared prosperity.
Join Columba World Projects for a conversation with Columbia Law professor Tim Wu and journalist Julia Angwin on how technology has transformed whole sectors of the economy and accelerated inequality, and what legal, institutional, and civic actions can build a democratic digital future.
This event is hosted by Columbia World Projects, with support from the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, and co-sponsored by All Tech Is Human. The discussion will be followed by an audience Q&A.
