Join us to share, debate and consolidate ideas about how we can drive disruption through sociotechnical innovation, and put these ideas ‘into action’ through a series of curated discussions.

Together, we will explore a current development to make a digital city for the future. We will examine this vision and the progress towards it to bring life to our sociotechnical approach - combining questions about cutting edge technology development with concerns for sustainability, inclusion and prosperity. In collaborative sessions with colleagues from industry, academia and policy we will work to identify the implications for applying a sociotechnical approach across our everyday work.

The event will also allow us to share more about our world-leading facilities – launching this year as part of the Temple Quarter Enterprise Campus - and also be able to explore our exciting exhibitor zone.

This symposium follows our first event (19 January 2022), which brought together an interdisciplinary mix of panellists from academia, business, government and civil society to explore the BDFI agenda. Recordings of the presentations are now available online.
