TechBlast has partnered with membership body pro-manchester for the return of its Trailblazing Tech conference in 2022.

The event, to be held at The Lowry Hotel on Friday 24th June, showcases how technology provides opportunity and asks the all-important question: what’s next?

It will discuss developments in FinTech and cybersecurity; analyse the impact of omnichannel on retail and digital marketing; explore how businesses are using technology to leverage their sustainability ambitions; and address the divide in healthcare tech.

With keynote speakers and panellists throughout the day, there will be live demonstrations as well as networking opportunities.

TechBlast executive editor Maguire, an award-winning journalist who has hosted more than 700 events, will host a cybersecurity panel entitled ‘There’s no such thing as too much security’.

The panel will discuss how AI continues to play a crucial role in automating security systems online and how multi-factor authentication – including authorisation codes, facial recognition and finger techniques – are providing businesses with an additional layer of security for their people and systems.
