In an ever-changing social, political and economic global landscape it can seem impossible to keep up with legal and regulatory developments, and that’s before trying to plan ahead for the future.

In an uncertain world of AI noise, the looming threat of cyber attacks, and a shake up of the world order leading to fragmented approaches to regulation, it can be difficult to remain positive and on the front foot. But there are plenty of opportunities for growth and success.

Our annual Tech & IP Conference will explore how businesses can take advantage of this period of change to evolve, build resilience, and leverage competitive advantage through powerful new technologies and innovation.

We hope you can join us to hear from key clients and leaders from a variety of sectors, all sharing their thoughts and experiences on current issues affecting organisations today.

Sessions will include:

• Keynote: Scotland’s technology turning point
• Cyber crime in the Trust Economy: Navigating an evolving threat landscape. In this session we will explore the findings of the latest paper in our Trust Economy series.
• Protecting innovation and investment on a global stage: Battling the copycats
• Data Privacy: What’s coming down the track for the UK and EU in data privacy?
• DE&I in the tech sector: Where the global giants go, will others follow?
• AI and IP: How tech is transforming creativity
