Vibrant Digital Future Summit 2019 | Nominet | 1 January 2020 | Queen Elizabeth II Centre, Broad Sanctuary, Westminster, London SW1P 3EE, UK

POSTPONED FOR 2020.

We recently announced that we would hold another Summit in 2019 but with our ambition to make this event bigger and better we have decided to postpone until 2020 so we can incorporate even more exciting future focused topics.

Please keep up to date on our next event by bookmarking and visiting this site.

Strategy. Governance. Security. The list of things keeping us all awake at night just keeps getting bigger. Between Brexit, hackers, and the rise of new technology like AI, it's little wonder we're all just a little weary of what the future might bring. Join Nominet and friends for a day of discovery, debate, and learning how to beat the competition and stay ahead of the curve. New threats also equal new opportunity, and #VdfSummit is here to help you ease all of your major pain points in just one day-long event.
