Upcoming event
Mobile Future Forward 2025
September 4 @ 8:00 am - 7:00 pm PDT
From artificial intelligence and quantum computing to synthetic biology, computational chemistry, advanced connectivity, fusion energy, brain-computer interfaces, and new material sciences, this era signifies not merely incremental progress but a profound leap in human potential and economic opportunity. The interplay of ideas and innovations across these fields will catalyse exponential advancements, transforming visions once relegated to science fiction into tangible realities.
At Mobile Future Forward this year we will be unlocking the deep tech innovation path from concept to development. Come join Cambridge Consultants, the deep-tech arm of Cap Gemini, as they bring together global leaders in advanced communications and applied innovation to explore how deep tech is solving complex commercial challenges at scale, and across industries.
Title: Deep tech innovation: from Lab to the real-world
Date: 4th September
Time: TBC
Synopsis:
How do we take deep tech out of theory and create lasting real-world impact? What does deep-tech mean to a young satellite communications company, versus to a company with a hundred-year history of innovation? How does it apply to a naturally cutting-edge domain such as vertical take-off and landing, versus applying it to the aging, crumbling electricity grid?
