Description


Digital Lancashire brings you an essential event to help you and your digital organisation.


The pace of change in the digital world is not without its challenges, but what if we could anticipate this and change our approach or thinking to create opportunity?


This Digital Lancashire event brings together a panel of businesses who are tackling the future head on - we'll hear from each of our speakers before delving into a discussion around the emergent issues.


Our speakers for the evening:

  • Simon Iredale: Group CEO of Motionlab
  • Michael Lough: Managing Direcor of Blue Wren
  • Russell McGrath: Innovation Funding Specialist with ABGi-UK


With refreshments provided, this is a brilliant opportunity to gain deeper insights into the challenges facing digital organisations and, of course, an opportunity to catch up with members, friends and peers alike.
