Data is the New Gold; But Who is Galamsey-ing It?
βπ£ Only 2 days left until the most insightful conversation on digital sovereignty takes place!!!
βThis Saturday at 9 am: If Data Is the New Gold, Who Owns Yours?
βWeβre talking about the resource Ghana is exporting every single dayβ¦ without ships, trucks, or mines.
βWe all worry about galamsey destroying our rivers. But every time we open an app, post a photo, or search online, something else is being mined β our data.
βAt the next Beyond AI Series β βData is the New Gold β But Who Is Galamsey-ing It?β β we bring together people who actually work inside the systems shaping our digital future:
β* Kofi Amponsah-Okyere β AI and data systems consultant building real AI infrastructure for banks, utilities, and public institutions
β* Emmanuel K. Gadasu β cybersecurity and privacy strategist advising organizations on data protection and regulation
β* Moderated by Princess Yanney β journalist and media analyst exploring how media narratives shape public understanding
βJoin this urgent public conversation. No coding required. Just curiosity.
βYou will leave understanding:
β* who profits from your data
β* how AI actually works in everyday life
β* and how to protect yourself
