Digital Transformation EXPO Manchester (DTX) is the North's biggest enterprise IT and technology event, covering the latest in cloud, infrastructure, data, devops and cyber security. This will be co-located with Unified Communications EXPO (UCX), the leading event on modern workplace tools and strategy.
At DTX, we believe that together we transform, so make sure to invite your team and colleagues to take in all the event has to offer. You can’t build a world class strategy solo…
One of the highlights of DTX Manchester is the impressive lineup of keynote speakers who will be sharing their expertise on topics such as digital innovation, data analytics, and emerging technologies.
Attendees will discuss and debate how to optimise tech stacks; unravel legacy data systems; design a next-gen engineering strategy; operate feature-rich modern workplace toolsets; build secure, threat-responsive ecosystems; and meet changing customer demands.
Matt Dawson - who is fast approaching the twenty year anniversary of his World Cup victory - will reflect on a long and varied career in a keynote interview on “Finding Your Edge: How to overcome weakness, trust your intuition and lead a team through hard times”. He will offer insights on how to build a world-class team culture, the lasting value of critique to guide tactics and what it takes to be your best on and off the field.
Dame Stella Rimington - the first woman to become Director General of the Security Service MI5 and dubbed the real-life M from James Bond - will share how to lead in times of challenge and change. Revealing how she has navigated a life of unexpected opportunities, Dame Stella will discuss why human insight is still critical to success when assessing information, even as artificial intelligence advances at rapid speed.
Greater Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham returns to close the show on Day One with a first-look at the digital vision laid out in the Greater Manchester Digital Blueprint for 2023-26.
Other big hitters on the lineup include John Hobson, Chief Information Officer at Kellogg Company; Ben Morris, Global Director of Cyber Security at The Hut Group; Mivy James, Digital Transformation Director at BAE Systems Digital Intelligence; Adam Lindsay, Director of Business Operations at Groupon; Leanne Fitzpatrick, Director of Data Science at The Financial Times; Rob Black, Technology Director at Beauty Bay; and Risk Alkunshalie, Head of Technology at Manchester Airports Group.
