Description

How are digital networks transforming our lives? What can the latest technologies do for you?

If you’re not online, are you out of the game?

  •     World leading speakers
  •     Demonstrations of the latest technologies
  •     Panel debate and discussion with digital experts
  •     Free workshops and ‘unconference’ networking sessions


Come along to our one day interactive conference to find out more about the pioneering interdisciplinary projects already underway at the University of Southampton and join the discussion about whether digital technologies will change our lives.

Technology sceptic and author Andrew Keen will provoke debate in his keynote address by predicting future developments and challenging assumptions that the Internet is always a force for good.

Southampton’s Professor Dame Wendy Hall will explain how businesses and researchers can make effective use of open and big data sets through the Web Observatory.

After lunch explore your own areas of interest through workshops, demonstrations and one-to-one networking with experts in a wide range of digital technologies.
