Gadget Show presenter to speak at Advantage Conference

Friday, 31 Jan, 2017 0

Jason Bradbury, presenter of the television programme The Gadget Show has been announced as the second keynote speaker at the 2017 Advantage Conference.

Bradbury will address the event, taking place between May 12-15 at Club Med Opio en Provence in the south of France.

Advantage managing director Julia Lo Bue-Said said: "With a conference programme that places a high emphasis on harnessing the power of emerging technology, Jason is an ideal choice as a conference speaker and his involvement will extend into moderating the main plenary sessions too."

Bradbury will take a whirlwind tour of the history of technology, how we got to where we are, how the pace of change is increasing, and where we might be in years to come.

As well as being a student of all things tech, Bradbury also builds things, from hoverboards to robots to mind-reading devices and frequently illustrates his presentations with them, surprising and engaging audiences, as well making them think.

The announcement that Bradbury will speak at the conference follows the release of the outlined programme, as well as the news Sir Chris Hoy MBE has been signed as keynote speaker.
