Political scientists, Bessma Momani and Shelly Ghai Bajaj will host Waterloo's Cybersecurity and Privacy Institute (CPI) latest CPI Talk.

They will discuss how disinformation flows and spreads on direct messaging and private chat applications, why they are important digital spaces to study, and the broader political and social implications of disinformation.

In this workshop, we’ll focus on researching your ideas. After this session, you’ll be able to: articulate research questions about your problem space, identify key library resources and freely available sources that will help with your market and industry research and articulate remaining gaps in your research.

Cornerstone will take participants through a term-long journey and provide extensive guidance to help with customer discovery and validation. Deadline to apply is May 15.

In this must-see workshop, the legendary Professor Larry Smith will discuss what makes an important problem, why pursuing important problems is advantageous for start-up founders and business owners, and how students can uncover important problems.

Hear from Velocity, Problem Lab, Zero, Conrad School of Entrepreneurship and Business, GreenHouse, St. Paul’s University College, Grebel Peace Incubator, and the University of Waterloo Library.

Communication networks are an essential part of our world today, used in transactions from banking to education, global business exchanges to defence. What happens when our private information is no longer private? Powerful quantum computers will have the ability to crack the encryption of public keys that we currently use to secure our data, putting our privacy at risk.

In this panel discussion, we’ll hear from three researchers who are at the forefront of discovery and application of quantum communication research:

• Katanya Kuntz, Research Associate, IQC and QEYSSat Science Team Coordinator
• Sara Zafar Jafarzadeh, Research Fellow, IQC and Cryptographer, Synopsys Inc.
• Dave Touchette, Professor, Institut Quantique, Université de Sherbrook
