Tech Trends is your opportunity to get ahead of the game and discover the key technologies making an appearance in the coming year.

This year we’ll be looking at both pushing the limits of the new, some things that help bridge the gap and, as always, we’ll take a peek at what is just hype and how trends from previous years have fared.

Giving us his rundown of the Top Ten Tech Trends of 2025 will be former Gartner analyst Richard Marshall, whose expertise covers numerous areas of software development including, mobile, low code, web tools, AI and Blockchain.

Join us in Edinburgh in January for an eye-opening evening where you will be privy to the latest developments in the industry and the expert predictions for 2025.

A huge thank you to our partners DLA Piper for returning to host us once again.

The distance between technology leaders and laggards is growing ever greater, with increasing numbers of companies finding themselves in transition.
