Tech Forum 2020: Tech for Good

Only three weeks to go | Secure your spot today

3 September | 3:30pm-6:30pm CET

Countdown has begun for this year’s Tech Forum: Tech for Good – a virtual and collaborative gathering – hosted during London Tech Week on 3 September. Join us as we discuss the technologies of the future, and tech as an enabler for good. How can ideas and innovation behind ideal driven technology and conscious investments be used to drive change?

Through keynotes, panels, pitching sessions from aspiring start-ups and interactive talk shows, and with a stellar line-up of 25+ speakers from both sides of the North Sea, we explore the technologies shaping the future and how the industry, academia and policy makers can solve the world’s problems together.

Meet leading and successful entrepreneurs, large corporates on their own digitisation journeys, public bodies in transformation, and some of the many venture capital investors browsing the space in Europe’s financial capital.
