Facebook, the world’s biggest social networking site, has been added this week to the impressive programme of national and local speakers at this year’s Talking Technology 2017 conference in September.
The Norfolk Chamber conference on Wednesday 20th September at The Space, Norwich will feature keynote presentations delivered by industry specialists and workshops on the latest tech innovations that will inspire guests to unlock their businesses growth through technology.
Industry experts will be taking to the stage to discuss the future of technology, including tech giants, Facebook, Microsoft, Aviva and local tech pioneers, Ubisend and Prison Voicemail, to name a few.
Joining the expert line-up is John Carr, Team Lead of Facebook’s Small & Medium Business division for the UK and Ireland. He and his team help clients and agencies get the best results from marketing campaigns on Facebook.
John will be leading a 20 minute keynote presentation on ‘Mobile, Visual, Personal – Future-proofing your business with Facebook’ which will focus on how the world is now mobile meaning business is becoming borderless and the importance of a mobile strategy for your business.
To celebrate success stories of local tech firms, guests will hear from businesses in Norfolk who will share their experiences and expertise on digital and technological developments in a series of short ‘Lightening Talks’. These local names include Tech East, Blue Sky Drones, Step into Tech and Foolproof.
Plus attendees will develop practical skills and take away top tips, from ‘how to create digital content’ to ‘user research’, in four 30 minute expert-led workshops, delivered by leaders in their field: Immersive VR, the User Story, Innershed and Integro.
All this, as well as a Q&A Panel, an exhibition featuring some of the region’s best businesses and a networking lunch where guests can collaborate and share ideas with innovators and members of the local business community directly.
Chris Sargisson, Chief Executive of Norfolk Chamber who will be hosting this year’s event said: “Without the knowledge to embrace technology, many businesses are at risk of being left behind. Talking Technology aims to equip all businesses with the knowledge and digital skills that can be implemented in their growth and development.
