While the world has evolved and benefited from technology on all fronts - from how we work to how we live - we recognise the power that innovation has to make our world a better place for all.

 

On July 28th, 1 pm GMT+1,  “DeepTech for Social Good”  will introduce the major players who will share insights on how they are leveraging the power of technology to bring forth positive global change.

 

Our event will bring together leaders, founders, visionaries, organisations and start-ups who all play a crucial role in solving complex questions of the modern world and drive real social change using frontier technologies in developing countries across the globe. It will feature:

  • Keynote Speakers

  • Presentations and Use Cases
