In tech? You’ll want to be in London for Interop in June

Flagship tech show cruises into Docklands on June 16-18

Promo Interop makes its UK debut at the Excel Centre in London this month, and the organisers have managed to squeeze 200 speakers and 100 exhibitors into three days.

As usual for an Interop event, Interop London has assembled an array of top notch speakers, from the public sector, private companies and the tech world’s top vendors, all to keep CIOs, IT managers, security pros and startups and investors on top of the world of tech.

Highlights include Brigadier Allan Hill, the MoD’s man responsible for systems that have to run as well in the battlezone as in the Home Counties. He will be discussing “Organisation and Cybersecurity in the Military Domain” in a keynote on Wednesday, June 16.

If you fancy something less obviously dangerous but almost as challenging, Barclays’ digital director Phil White will deliver a keynote on June 17, covering the digital disruption shaking the financial services market.

On the same day, Lord Wei of Shoreditch will be deliver a keynote on “Techlash and what we need to do to avoid it”, examining the social unrest that could ensue in a world where technology enriches its owners but leaves those whose jobs it obliterates stranded.

Away from the keynote stages, panel debates will drill down on a range of issues, the nuts and bolts of integrating agile and the cloud, to selling your company, to getting more women into IT, to whether CIOs risk becoming “chiefly irrelevant officers” if they don’t adapt to the changing digital landscape.

If that doesn’t keep you on your feet, maybe the exhibition floor will, with over 100 exhibitors from the mega companies you’d expect to niche startups.

And remember, Interop London is the flagship IT event for London Technology Week. This also includes the Blackhat Mobile Security Summit, which will run alongside the show, and the Future of Tech Program, which will feature mentoring and pitching for startups. You’ll also be next door to IFSEC International and the Facilities show. So if you’re feeling bored … well, you’ve no excuse. ®
