Sunderland City Hall

In this keynote talk by Dan Fitzpatrick, author of the AI classroom and highly regarded thought leader in the advancement of AI in education, participants will be taken on a journey through the ever-evolving world of technology and the ways in which artificial intelligence is transforming our lives. This informative and thought-provoking presentation will examine the impact of AI on education and explore ways in which it can be leveraged to enhance the learning experience. Sunderland City Council has been working with education partners TA Education on a project to inspire children and young people, and give a taste of what’s to come when Culture House Sunderland opens its doors in 2025. Attracting Sunderland’s youth is key to the success of this landmark building. With its boundless potential and the empowering philosophy of “If you can dream it, you can build it,” Minecraft stands as the ideal platform to inspire and engage young minds. The project will see Culture House Sunderland built in Minecraft. Join us on June 20th at the Mayor's Parlour (6th Floor, Sunderland City Hall) for the launch of the competition with local schools, allowing young people to help design one of Culture House teen spaces.

The TechNExt Main Stage will be a single stream of thought provoking conference talks from leaders in technology and related industries.
