Human Enhancement Through Technology

The panel discussion paves such concrete ground with use-cases of human enhancements through technologies that improve the daily lives of people with disabilities or diseases. It debates the challenges and opportunities that innovation stakeholders face for the deployment of such products and services and on the proposal to progress in a new collaborative paradigm so we, humans, are not shackled by the outdated mass production/consumption model of the 20th century.
