Future Form; Data, AI & Design

The Future Form meet-up series aims to build a community in London which facilitates the exchange of ideas and knowledge of the state of the art in the areas of Artificial Intelligence, Data Engineering, and Design, and the interplay of each. We'll bring together a community of builders from both industry and government to talk about their approaches to the emerging areas of Data, AI & Design.
This will be more than a technical conversation, that will also touch on human and commercial factors that influence the work.
