Disrupting London

Join us for an afternoon filled with disruptive technologies, meet dozens of innovative tech companies from the US and enjoy the unique London ecosystem for companies in technology and digital industries!

What is Disrupting London?

Disrupting London centers around six disruptive technologies and the enormous impact they have on the way businesses and governments operate as well as the very foundation on which business models are drawn up. North America is a guiding region for technology innovation, and for the most part our inspiring speakers will represent North American companies.  We have invited 24 companies to talk about the topics, and all these companies are regarded as disruptive and innovative leaders in their home markets. Furthermore, all these companies are actively looking to expand their footprint in Europe.

We’ll also hear from people in economic development agencies, business accelerators and service providers about the unique features and benefits the UK has to offer, and how international companies can make use of resources and expertise when they’re looking to establish their operations here.

Who should attend Disrupting London?

Disrupting London is aimed at IT managers and CIOs of both large organizations as well as small to medium-sized businesses who are eager to hear first –hand what is happening in enterprise IT in North America, and how these developments may very well impact their own organizations. Disrupting London is also aimed at entrepreneurs, developers, investors and early-adopters. In addition, Gartner predicts that Chief Marketing Officers will spend more money on IT than CIOs by the year 2017 as a result of the ongoing shift to technology-based marketing.  Marketing managers and digital marketers will need to get used to new tools, develop new capabilities and the marketing revolution will be a key element of Disrupting London.
