This event features film and book promotion by the author(s) of Second Shift: The Inside Story of the Keep GM Movement book. The Lansing Works! Keep GM! movement was a victory of people over bureaucracy, of a can-do attitude over cynicism―a story rarely told in todays complex, technological, and often dehumanizing world of large business and out-of-control government. And the best part was that, in the end, both sides came away winners. Its proof positive that when the public and private sectors work together as equal partners, amazing things can happen.

This event is designed to bring researchers from the social and technical disciplines together to generate discussion and collaboration that will improve our knowledge of cybercrime and the policy response to this phenomenon. The conference will utilize a TED Talk style structure, where in a 50-minute panel two speakers will have approximately 20-25 minutes each to present their work and ideas at a high level. Each session will feature a social and technical researcher to promote synergy.
