Future Talks Networking Event: Can tech rewire the British economy?
Join Here East and Plexal for our next edition of Future Talks on 17th September bringing together leaders shaping the UK’s technology, business and policy landscape to tackle one key question: can tech rewire the British economy?
At its core, the discussion will centre on a simple but pressing challenge: the UK has long been strong at generating world-class ideas, but how do we ensure that this new era of technology delivers lasting economic transformation? It’s a question sitting high on the national agenda, particularly as the new government under Andy Burnham places renewed emphasis on regional growth, innovation and productivity.
From AI to advanced computing, technology is redefining how industries in the UK operate and how productivity is generated. But turning breakthroughs into lasting economic transformation requires collective action.
That is why we are bringing together some of the most influential UK senior leaders across business, technology, and government for an evening of panel discussions, keynotes and networking.
We’ll be announcing the speakers shortly!
