Healthy Society
New Digital Society
We live in the information age. This presents unimaginable opportunities, but it also poses a string of new dangers to individuals and organizations. Threats that have an erosive influence on the fundamentals of our society, economy and our democracy. Think of cybercrime, privacy violations and fake news.
Healthy Society
Our challenge is to put ‘people’ at the centre of an increasingly digital society. We believe that a healthy society requires more focus on human-centred technology. To that end, we are at the forefront of pioneering digital solutions. Jointly, we shape a New Digital Society.
Companies, research institutes and participating governments working together in the New Digital Society ecosystem, are at the forefront of digital innovation. This includes sectors such as Edtech, Immersive Technology, Media, Trust and Games.
Crossing boarders
We invite foreign companies to work with us on technology that leads to positive behavioral change. Think of the development of decentralized data storage and management with data vaults that empowers individuals by giving control over their personal data. Or honest (fact based) news provision where filter bubbles and fake news are counteracted and trust in news from civilians is restored. And through Edtech, that helps facilitate the current never–ending need for personalized and efficient ways of learning.
In addition, the ROM Utrecht Region stimulates crossovers within and across ecosystems. Think of Immersive Technology and Web 3.0, solutions that other industries benefit from. ROM Utrecht Region strives for an innovative tech landscape, in which parties work together on a digital society in which everyone can participate and contribute safely, in the Netherlands, in Europe and around the world.
