Cambridge Innovation Summit 2024
Get ready for a day of disruptive ideas and ground-breaking insights as we bring together the most revolutionary minds and reflect on what our world will look like fifty years from now.
Sep 10, 5:00PM, Sep 11, 4:00PM BST
Look forward to...
A packed schedule
Get ready for a full day of disruptive ideas and ground-breaking insights - we’re really proud of the speakers, panels and activities we’ve put together.
Living it your way
Networking and Discussion will (weather permitting!!) spill out onto the banks of the river Cam - with a walking transfer along the ‘Backs’ to dinner.
Not just watching
Live Q&As, in-session chat, polls, games, whiteboard and branistorming sessions... thought this was going to be only about watching people talk? Think again.
Food for thought
We carefully selected our speakers with the goal of bringing really though-provoking, disruptive ideas to the table.
Meaningful connections
Be ready to meet other brilliant minds, exchange ideas, network and lay the foundations for new, fruitful partnerships across all the industry consortia run by CfBI
Extra content and recordings
You’ll have access to all recordings after the event is over, so you can go back an rewatch the sessions you didn’t catch live. We’ll also share slides and more extras.
