Tim Robinson, COO of Tech East, said:

“Tech East is thrilled to return to UK Tech Week as we continue to champion the growing tech ecosystem in the East of England.

This year, we’re hosting Tech Mixer: Shaping Suffolk’s AI Future in Ipswich. An evening dedicated to exploring how Artificial Intelligence is transforming our region. With a thought-provoking keynote, a lively panel of local tech, business, and education leaders, and plenty of time to connect over drinks and pizza, it’s the perfect space to spark ideas and collaborations.

It’s a fantastic opportunity to highlight Suffolk’s AI talent, foster collaboration, and celebrate the innovation driving growth and transformation across the East of England.”
