Delighted and excited to announce that on the 15th of March I will be up in Lancaster to speak at LUHack's Hackademia 2025 event at Lancaster University.

So far I've only built this for AI, but might add quantum, blockchain, web x.0, and so on. Any other suggestions?

This is your sporadic reminder that if you aren't doing scenario testing for DR, BC, IR, and crisis management (not exhaustive list), you should be.
