The 21st Century will be known as the era of sensors, implants, interfaces, and networks, pervasively concealed and ubiquitously deployed in knowing and unknowing environments and systems. Integrated convergence at the nanoscale is happening within biotechnology through bio- and genetic- engineering, information technology through advanced computing, and cognitive science and neuroscience. The impact and implications for benefits, as well as unintended consequences, is expected to be felt across all societal and economic sectors on a global scale. What are the short- and long-term legal challenges and opportunities? Are we prepared to deal with the perceived, known, unknown and yet undefined risks? Are infrastructures in place to cope with the ramifications of the rapid advances of research and development? Is today’s societal framework ready for the Age of Convergence?
