Innovation has long been woven into the fabric of Gloucestershire. From world-changing scientific breakthroughs and engineering achievements to today's thriving technology and innovation sectors, the county has a proud history of turning bold ideas into reality.

Heritage of Innovation celebrates that legacy while exploring how it continues to influence the businesses, entrepreneurs and communities shaping Gloucestershire today. Join us as we reflect on where we've come from, celebrate what is happening now and consider the opportunities that lie ahead.

As home to the UK's cyber capital, Gloucestershire plays a unique role in protecting the systems, organisations and infrastructure we rely on every day. Securing the Future brings together leaders, innovators and practitioners to explore the challenges and opportunities facing an increasingly connected world.

From cyber security and resilience to emerging technologies and digital trust, this day will examine how security underpins innovation, growth and prosperity.

Every year, Gloucestershire Tech Week will shine a spotlight on a different theme, sector or challenge that deserves greater attention. Designed to encourage new thinking, fresh perspectives and unexpected connections, this day provides the flexibility to explore emerging opportunities, tackle important questions and bring together voices that might not otherwise share a stage.

Whatever the focus, expect thought-provoking discussions, inspiring stories and new ideas to take away.

Artificial intelligence is rapidly changing the way we live, work and solve problems. The AI Opportunity explores both the potential and the practical realities of this transformative technology.

Whether you are already working with AI or simply looking to understand its impact, this day offers a chance to engage with one of the defining technologies of our time.
