The Safetytech Hub
27/03/2022The Safetytech Hub took place in May 2022, organised by Safetytech Accelerator in partnership with the Financial Times and hosted by Lloyd’s Register Foundation at the Safer World Conference 2022.
We brought together thought leaders from business and institutions to debate where and how digital technology and innovation is transforming the way industry manages safety, risk and resilience in the face of increasing business complexity and new social and sustainability imperatives.
We presented two sessions which have been recorded and you can watch below:
