Over the past few months ADS has been delighted to host a series of webinars, sponsored by AWS, on emerging technologies and their impact on businesses within the defence, aerospace, security and space sectors. The webinars have focused, somewhat in isolation, on artificial intelligence, quantum computing, biotechnology, Internet of Things / connected places and smart cities / big data, and on the future of energy. 

Each webinar has demonstrated the fascinating and important impacts on businesses and why we need to be thinking about them now. 

On Wednesday 30 October 2024, we look forward to hosting a panel session looking at how the emerging technologies, explored in the webinar series, converge in the imperfect world we live and operate in. This panel will be attended by subject matter experts and will be supported by speakers from ADS and HMG. Following this, there will be an opportunity to network and engage with speakers, like-minded future-thinking colleagues and HMG officials. This drinks reception is kindly sponsored by AWS.
