Delivering the Next Decade of UK Innovation
Discover how to shape and prepare for the next wave of transformative technologies
techUK’s 2025 Tech & Innovation Summit brings together industry leaders, policymakers, regulators, and futurists to explore how emerging technologies can power the UK’s next decade of innovation, driving progress and economic growth through to 2035 and beyond.
With a newly-launched Industrial Strategy looking towards 2035, UKRI embarking on 10-year funding horizons, and the appointment of the Regulatory Innovation Office’s first Chair, the UK Government is taking bold steps to ensure the UK realises the economic and social opportunities behind technologies such as AI, Quantum and Robotics.
But is the UK ready to grasp this opportunity? And how can government and industry work together to ensure the nation has the talent, investment, strategy, and regulation to succeed?
Through visionary keynotes, hands-on tech demos, and expert panels, attendees will gain the insight and foresight they need to prepare for the next decade of innovation, opportunity and rapid change.
