Keynotes
Thought leadership. Innovation. The Digital Age.
Fundamental to the programme will be the keynote sessions. These sessions will transform complex information into accessible and entertaining insights and provide a ‘crystal ball’ vision that will prepare our NFP audience for what is coming next technology-wise.
We have invited real-world sector experts to talk about tech trends and to leverage their knowledge and expertise to provide in-depth insights into the future of technology and entrepreneurship.
Ted-style Talks
Educational. Entertaining. 20 minutes.
Our sponsors will educate and entertain you with all the insights about their topics – in just 20 minutes! They are passionate about what they do and are leading technology experts. Better still, there will also be client case studies about technology selection and implementation. They are people just like you who were in the process themselves not that long ago. You will be able to ask questions and speak further to all of them during the breaks.
Roundtable Discussions
Get involved. Contribute. Share.
Eager to get stuck into a topic rather than skim the surface? Due to popular demand (and sold out sessions last year), we will be running 6 round table discussions. Everyone is given an equal right to participate in the discussion and help shape it.
Topics will be announced shortly, so stay tuned!
Lightning Talks
Their USPs. Their solutions. Their 5 minutes.
Our Lightning Talks are deliberately brief. Our sponsors will articulate an educational topic in a quick insightful and clear manner. These concise Talks will grab your attention and will be arranged one after the other in a 60-minute timeslot.
You will have plenty of time to speak to these experts at their exhibition stands during the breaks.
Ask the Experts
Best Practice. Independent Advice. Vendor-agnostic.
Hart Square, the organisers of TechSmart NFP 2018, are independent experts on the selection and implementation of data-related, digital technologies.
They will provide independent, vendor-agnostic insights and guidance gained through delivering hundreds of successful projects and helping a wide range of professional membership and non-profit organisations to leverage technology to meets their business objectives.
They will demonstrate first-hand, “at the coal-face” knowledge and experience that can help organisations who are planning, or are involved in, tech projects to bring them to a successful conclusion – and avoid the common pitfalls.
