On 13th June the Turing Trust is hosting its first ever conference, Turing Talks, at the National Museum of Scotland.
This conference will assemble professionals who are passionate about making change happen through the use of technology. We have a fantastic lineup of speakers from a wealth of backgrounds who will be sharing how their work in tech is disrupting traditional approaches to development.
Not only will the Turing Talks be a fantastic event for bringing together individuals who are keen to learn about how technology is changing health, education, energy, and finance but it will also help the Turing Trust continue its far-reaching work in sub-Saharan Africa.
Turing Talks is hosting representatives from IBM, UNICEF, Microsoft, Barclays, the European Space Agency, and a variety of smaller organisations which use tech to challenge convention. Also involved are broadcaster and endurance cyclist Mark Beaumont, philanthropist and adventurer Bernie Hollywood OBE, Sir Dermot Turing, author and nephew of Alan Turing, and Dr Alasdair Allan, Scottish Minister for International Development and Europe.
All proceeds from Turing Talks will be used to help the Turing Trust continue its far-reaching work bridging the digital divide. Tickets are available on Eventbrite. We offer group booking discounts of 20% off the current ticket price for 2 or more tickets, 25% for 5 or more, and 30% for 10 or more.
