Christoph Bieber is taking part in a panel at the Smart City Summit Niederrhein in Mönchengladbach on the question of “Why do we need new solutions for data ethics and cyber security and what could they look like?”. He is the founding chairman of the inter-municipal Lower Rhine Ethics Advisory Board, which was formed by the cities of Mönchengladbach and Krefeld. The committee advises those responsible in the run-up to or during the implementation of smart city projects and addresses their ethical aspects in particular. Conceptualisation and preparations for its establishment began in 2022, and the Ethics Advisory Board officially began its work in spring 2023.
The Smart City Summit was postponed from 23 November 2023 to 29 February 2024.
