In The Crucible

The US is experiencing tech evolution along multiple lines simultaneously. As AI, robotics, AVs and drones proliferate, we need a suitable digital, energy and urban infrastructure to support this more intelligent and responsive environment and meet the requirements of our national security.

Into this, a next generation of telecoms is emerging which promises to create a secure sensing and enabling layer that can activate intelligence everywhere.

Given the right policy, investment and commercial momentum these trends can mutually reinforce to boost the US economy ahead of rivals. Without that, the country risks falling far behind, dragged down by poorly aligned incentives and conflicting oversight.

In October, join policymakers, investors and leading figures in the tech and telecoms industry to explore how we can best seize the opportunities available to revitalise the country and key industries within it.
