Every January we run an annual event called Tech Trends, where we get a panel of the UK’s top technology journalists together to predict and debate the biggest trends ahead in tech.
But so much has changed over the last six months (much of it connected in some way to technology), we wanted to convene an expert panel to explore how the unpredictable events of this year have impacted the tech industry.
From connected health to privacy, from a relaxing of the techlash to track and trace, from the funding environment to the most exciting innovations, our panel will take us through their views on how the evolving tech landscape.
Join our expert panel:
- Alex Hern, UK Technology Editor, the Guardian
- Natasha Bernal, Business Editor, Wired
- Parmy Olson, Tech Reporter, Wall Street Journal
- Sid Venkataramakrishnan, European Technology Reporter, Financial Times
