A new Decade - A new Name - A new Conference

Tommy Flowers Network
A new decade a new name. The Tommy Flowers Institute is evolving!

We launched 4 years ago with the mission statement of ‘bridging the gap between the ICT Industry and UK Academia to help produce research leaders of the future’. 

Now the ‘Tommy Flowers Institute’ will become ‘Tommy Flowers Network’ and we’ll expand our remit to bring you Thought Leadership and other exciting events alongside our conferences.

We’re growing into a network of likeminded people and institutions working for a greater good.  We want to build upon that and with your continued support we can continue to create something really special we can be incredibly proud of.


Creating Value for Economies:
Collaborate – Innovate – Educate
Cancelled due to Corona Virus Crisis

Our next conference explores the impact of the ecosystem that we are building. We will discuss existing success stories with academia and industry.  Via a poster event, we will be celebrating our young researchers, positioning their work within this vibrant world of Technology and Innovation.

We will encourage collaboration throughout the conference with our young researchers, experienced strategists and successful entrepreneurs, by pushing new ideas, providing sound advice and sparking new innovations.

The conference takes place at Adastral Park, on 24th - 25th March 2020, with a dinner on the evening of Tuesday 24th.  There are no fees to attend the conference.
If you are a post graduate researcher or early career researcher, in either academia or industry, or know of any who would be interested in entering our poster event please sign up here or share the following information with them:
