21 September, O2 ABC, Glasgow

The Festival Guide to Technology
Facebook, Apps, F-commerce, NFC, Twitter, Foursquare… just as the latest technology starts to make sense, the landscape changes.

Most festivals have a social media presence, but how far can you push it? What about Apps? Or near-field communication (NFC)? What else is out there, what’s worth investing in and what’s definitely not?

Specifically designed to be accessible for all abilities, this panel of experts (and realists!) will be a guide through the latest technological developments, enabling delegates to understand what’s relevant to put resources into, and the knowledge to put it into practice when they leave.
