Tech Events at The Exchange, Birmingham

BCIC West Midlands annual conference on lowering energy costs and opening new markets for regional manufacturing and supply-chain firms.

An early-morning coffee catch-up for the Next Gen Healthcare Network at The Exchange on Centenary Square. The listing describes it only as hot topics in the healthcare sector.

A Birmingham Tech Week session at The Exchange on building inclusive routes into AI and automation at work, 13:45 to 16:30. It builds on last year's Disability and Diversity in a Future of AI session. An expert panel makes the case for why investing in inclusion and diverse teams changes organisational resilience and what the technology actually delivers. Attendees then take part in an interactive exercise on AI adoption in their own workplaces, and the session shares early findings from the AI-empowered research project on how organisational approaches to AI are shaping the working lives of disabled people. Free, registration via the organiser's form. Why go: it moves past intent to the research and the practical decisions, and the session feeds back into live work. Best for people leaders, accessibility leads and anyone rolling AI tooling across a workforce.
