Thinking Digital Conference
25/05/2010,
Thinking Digital is an annual conference where the world's greatest thinkers and innovators gather to inspire, to entertain, and to discuss the latest ideas and technologies.
Defining exactly what to expect at Thinking Digital isn't easy. We pride ourselves on the eclectic nature of our schedule. One moment you'll be experiencing a first UK appearance of Live Mesh (as attendees where treated to in 2008) and the next you'll be hearing about the science behind creating a million dollar perfume from a world class expert.
The conference is run by Codeworks, a not-for-profit organisation set up to support, develop and help grow the digital industries in North East England. Thinking Digital is not intended to make a profit, and any extra revenues generated will be used to support the region's digital sector.
