Giving us his rundown of the Top Ten Tech Trends of 2026 will be former Gartner analyst Richard Marshall, whose expertise covers numerous areas of software development including, mobile, low code, web tools, AI and Blockchain.

While technomaximalists make huge claims of an amazing future, the reality is that all too many things are just broken or at best held together with string and tape. All too often we’re trying to build impossibly huge structures on fragile foundations. Several recent infrastructure failures have shown just how weak our data supply chains truly are.

So if we want to build cool new stuff, we have work to do – and this will determine the key areas of focus for the coming year.

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 2026.

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