In 2026, the global conversation around tech design reached a critical turning point.

The Council on Tech and Social Cohesion’s 2026 Expo brings together many of the people shaping that shift — technologists, civil society, researchers, regulators, and peacebuilding practitioners — in one global program across multiple time zones.
