As the first two episodes of Who Rules Cyberspace? have shown, much of the debate around cyber governance at the state level takes place within highly complex United Nations processes. 

Beyond the high-level diplomacy, however, a wide range of non-state actors are working to develop international solutions to cyber governance.

In this episode Ben and Joyce speak to representatives from the private sector to find out how businesses are responding to the challenge. Casper Klynge (VP for European Government Affairs at Microsoft) outlines the apporach that tech companies are taking to support the diplomatic process, and Ria Thomas (Managing Director at Polynia Advisory) explains why non-tech businesses must make cyberspace a higher priority.
