Events

Our digital identity, digital reputation and digital footprint are creating value and wealth. As users we get some services for free but is this a fair barter for your data and privacy. Now that marketers can target you with pinpoint accuracy with the data and information you have shared, should we be demanding more.

At this evening mashup* event we will explore how data is being gathered [with and without your knowledge], reality mining, how these behavioural and technological changes are affecting the marketing and privacy industries and what we can expect from the regulator as the companies can now focus on only those with discretionary income and ignore those who have no economic benefit – a real digital divide. Are you valuable or not?

Speakers

Alex Willcock is the Founder and CEO of Imagini.

He sold his award winning design agency, The Nest, to embark on an idea to develop a universal language of communication and understanding. This led to the creation of VisualDNA, a means of understanding people through images. Launched in March 2007 as Imagini.net, over 15 million people have so far discovered their VisualDNA. Using the insights that this extraordinary information has provided, Alex’s team developed Youniverse.com unveiled in March 2008. With this new social networking brand, Alex aims to demonstrate his belief that feelings are the purest form of communication. The BBC has since nominated Youniverse as one of the best sites on the web.
