14-16 June 2021 – Kings Cross, London
CogX Festival
A Global Leadership Summit and Festival of 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 how we address the challenges along the way.
In a world where everyone has had to find new ways to learn, new ways to work, and new ways to connect and build relationships, CogX believes in the power of convening people. So, in true CogX style, we are working towards delivering a hybrid festival in June 2021 which gives people the option of attending sessions virtually or coming together in person in a safe and comfortable way.
In this new hybrid format, CogX will continue to bring together the most incredible cross sections of society focused on the overall ambition of ‘How do we get the next 10 years right?’.
- Inspiring current and future generations of leaders
- Moving conversations forward with concrete actions
- Celebrating and recognising the latest innovation, especially those focused on addressing the COVID-19 pandemic
- Continue the fight for equality, diversity and inclusivity in all aspects of society
- Getting to NetZero – helping reframe the climate emergency as the biggest economic opportunity in the last 200 years

Why CogX at King’s Cross?
