The Be Kind Tech Fund is a US$10 million corporate venture fund managed by Globant Ventures. It invests in global startups developing apps, products, and platforms aimed at mitigating the negative effects of technology on society.
My role
During my leadership of the alliance, one of my main projects was developing a framework to measure the negative societal impact of technology. The lack of established standards highlighted the need for a tool that could assess various aspects, including data privacy, misinformation, ethical AI, online harassment, environmental sustainability, and societal well-being.
Impact
This framework has empowered more than 30 organizations within the alliance and policymakers to better address these critical issues.
