Thinking Digital

The Thinking Digital conference is an annual event where outstanding individuals gather to take part in an exclusive conversation about technology, ideas and our future.

In May 2008, the Thinking Digital conference will take on an eclectic range of technology-based topics that have (or soon will have) a profound effect upon the way we work and live: from the future of media and making far better use of technology, to our obsession with happiness and creating a cure for ageing.

The Thinking Digital conference was created and is run by Codeworks.

Gathering Great People

We believe that by gathering the world's brightest, most influential and creative minds together, we can help one another understand, analyse and exploit the incredible commercial, creative and cultural opportunities created by the technologies of today and tomorrow - to create a better world for all of us.

Our speakers: We choose our speakers are with great care - asking only those with the knowledge, the experience, the ideas and the impact to challenge, enlighten or inspire our audience. We pick them for one (or more) of three reasons:

• They are the among the very best at what they do
• They have made pioneering developments in their field
• Their work and their ideas have the potential to change the world

Using a variety of engaging formats, we try to ensure all our talks present information in a way that you'll find memorable and inspiring as well as informative.

Our delegates: At the Thinking Digital conference, you‘ll find an array of interesting people as diverse as our programme itself - high-level industry representatives from the fields of technology, mobile, media, publishing, FMCG, venture capital, investment banking, law and management consulting. You‘ll also find public policymakers, not for profits and academia.

Whatever their field, all our delegates share a few things in common:

• A passion to find out more about technology and how it affects our world
• An interest in building relationships with high level industry contacts
• A desire to be energised, enlightened and inspired

Our steering committee: The Thinking Digital conference is backed up by a steering committee featuring some of the leading names from the worlds of digital media and technology. They include: Mike Butcher, editor of TechCrunch UK; Michael Nutley, editor-in-chief of NMA; Sam Michel, founder of Chinwag; and Rob Gray of Microsoft.

A Lasting Conversation

We hope attending the Thinking Digital conference will just be the beginning of a fascinating ongoing conversation. During the conference, and later through this website, there will be plenty of opportunities for both delegates and speakers to meet, build relationships and engage with each other.
