MANILA, Philippines – What can we do to turn tech for good?

For the first time since the pandemic, Rappler is holding the Manila Social Good Summit (SGS) face to face on September 16 (Saturday), from 8:30 am to 4 pm, at the Samsung Hall, SM Aura Premier, Taguig, Metro Manila.

With the theme, “#TurningTechForGood: From problem to solution,” the Manila Social Good Summit 2023 aims to facilitate solution-focused conversations on technology. The sessions will focus on what institutions, communities, companies, and other sectors can do to shape an environment that will enable reform in tech, and stem further harm on society. 

It will bring together tech leaders, reform advocates, NGOs and community-based institutions, public and private sectors, media, among others.

67th U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, Philippine Chief Justice Alexander Gesmundo, Facebook whistleblower Frances Haugen, and key leaders in tech, business, and civil society, will headline Rappler’s Social Good Summit (SGS) on Saturday, September 16. Check out the program and list of speakers here.
