Safety Tech Academy
A new sector is emerging which focuses on protecting users and communities in online spaces and is looking to support the creation of a safer and better internet for everyone.
Through the Safety Tech Innovation Network, Consequential and Considered Capital are partnering to run a pilot Safety Tech Academy with a targeted cohort of earlier stage businesses to test ways to support them in creating good products, building sustainable businesses, and growing the sector and its impact.

Digital Catapult’s AI Ethics Advisory Committee
This advisory group works closely with startups through Digital Catapult’s Machine Intelligence Garage programme - hosting direct consultations, office hours, and workshops with startups as they navigate all the possibilities of their business idea. We also delivered a workshop on Applied Ethics: From Principle to Practice, which we are working with the MI Garage team to turn into a webinar.

Research on the next generation of data ethics tools
Over the past few years, organisations have been developing principles, frameworks and tools to help make technology and data practices more responsible and ethical.
In early 2021, alongside the Open Data Institute (ODI), we at Consequential – a responsible strategy and innovation agency – researched fundamental questions about the second generation of tech and data ethics tools. This involved exploring the current challenges and opportunities in this area to support the vision of a world where data works for everyone.
