Technology is more essential than ever to bounce back, but it raises new ethical issues that need to be closely managed to obtain the best economic and social added value. Some technologies present ethical risks because of their nature, the data they collect or the populations for which they are intended. Examples include facial recognition, personal data management, admission control, employee productivity monitoring and the use of AI to support teams.

Running a company that develops or uses cutting-edge technologies is both an opportunity and a challenge: not to let the negative externalities of these technologies harm users, employees or society. Lab.222 projects stimulate the development of ethical technologies "by design": from the first sketches to deployment, thinking to create value based on values. In order to accompany entrepreneurs on this sometimes perilous path, the teams within Lab.222 propose an innovative method of co-construction of tools for steering ethical innovation "by design", as well as training and practical workshops.
