CogX Festival
A Global Leadership Summit and Festival of AI & Transformational Technology addressing the question,
‘How do we get the next 10 years right?’
The world’s largest gathering of CEOs, Entrepreneurs, Academics, Artists, Activists & Policy Makers working to realise the biggest transformational opportunities of our time and address the challenges along the way.
About the Festival
CogX Festival gathers the brightest minds in business, government and technology to celebrate innovation, discuss global topics and share the latest trends shaping the defining decade ahead.
With the ambitious mission to bring clarity in a fast-moving digital age and inspire positive change — the Festival welcomes a global community to join the conversation so together we can create a better, more inclusive future for all of humanity.
The first hybrid Festival of its kind
We understand that the world of technology can be both innovative and unpredictable, so we created an event that celebrates precisely that.
With a hybrid CogX Festival, you can immerse yourself in inspiring sessions and tap into our buzzing community either on our vibrant virtual platform, or in person at our dazzling venues in central London.
The driving principles behind the CogX Festival
CogX Festival is a learning experience that goes beyond what’s new in the industry. Here’s what drives us:
- Inspiring current and future generations of leaders
- Moving conversations forward with concrete actions
- Celebrating the latest innovations
- Continuing the fight for equality, diversity and inclusivity in all aspects of society
- Getting to NetZero – reframing the climate emergency as the biggest economic opportunity in the last 200 years.
