The Tech Sovereignty Monthly Meet Up

A monthly, peer-led space to discuss tech sovereignty, swap ideas, and find real alternatives to big tech.

We are Natasha and Tim from CoTech, a network of 28 worker-owned digital and tech cooperatives in the UK. 

We want to advance the debate around tech sovereignty with a view to helping more organisations and people understand the issues and risks involved in using big tech and empowering them to move away from it.

This meet up is...

A facilitated peer-to-peer knowledge sharing space for: 

• discussing tech sovereignty 
• networking
• show and tell
• sharing ideas
• exploring platforms
• finding solutions that work!

Who’s it for?

Anyone with an interest in tech sovereignty or open source technologies: developers, product owners, comms folks, political technologists, policy makers, IT folks, and more.

We’d particularly love to see

• People active in open source technology communities
• People actively working on moving themselves or their clients away from big tech
• People building or using ethical digital tools who are willing to share their workflows
