Digital Catapult’s 10th Anniversary – Online Event

Join Digital Catapult’s 10 year anniversary live-stream celebration.

Over the last decade, Digital Catapult has grown the UK’s technology ecosystem, driving early adoption forward through innovation and collaboration with industry, academia, startups and government. At this event we will discuss how advanced digital technology can impact the most pressing challenges facing organisations.

The anniversary event also marks the launch DC10, of our new immersive gallery charting Digital Catapult’s most impactful moments since 2013 and a glimpse into the future of UK tech. The installation will be available on your next visit to our London Kings Cross HQ.

This exclusive live streaming is open to everyone who are interested in exploring the impact Digital Catapult had on the growth of the UK economy and technology ecosystem over the last decade.
