EVENT DETAILS

Technology is developing at a breathtaking rate. It seems like every week some new innovation makes the "cutting edge" obsolete. In this program, Walter Isaacson and experts explore our digital future, what new innovations will change the way we live, and how the rapid development of technology poses new threats to our security. This program is part of a special series, conceived by Harold Newman, examining where we’ve been, where we are and the complexities and possibilities of the world beyond tomorrow.
