techUK is delighted to be hosting Dr Catherine Howe, CEO for Adur & Worthing Councils for an industry briefing. Dr Howe has considerable experience in digital transformation and innovation, with a focus to develop data-led, targeted approaches to the delivery of service to residents.

This event is a great opportunity for tech suppliers to hear first-hand from a senior local government leader their digital vision for the council and place. Find out what the key asks to industry are as well as any potential opportunities for collaboration.

Attend to be better informed of the councils digital technologies and data priorities, the key problems they are trying to solve and how they engage and work with suppliers.

There will be plenty of time for Q&A and a wider discussion on the councils plans and what the future of local public services looks like.
