ACME and the Kin network are running an event examining Independent Living Technology as Liverpool is seen a a leader within this field in the UK. The event will explore the range of software and hardware that promotes Health and Wellbeing and the opportunities it holds for Liverpool's creative and digital sector.

Chaired by a commissioner from Liverpool Council, Health, Wellbeing and New Technology invites you to join our panel in a discussion, about how Liverpool businesses can prosper by meeting the needs of this rapidly growing market (as well as the pitfalls along the way).

On 21 - 24 March 2013, FutureEverything presents the Summit of Ideas & Digital Invention - a four day event that is centred around a two day conference and a programme of live music and contemporary art events. The Summit will host the annual FutureEverything conference, which is focussing on three main themes we believe will influence the culture and business of digital societies in the future: Creative Code, Future Cities and The Data Society.

They are delighted to announce speakers from Google, BBC, Kickstarter, Vimeo and the Europeana Foundation are already confirmed.

 A very quick round up of the digital events in Liverpool this week: 10th - 17th December 

Open Labs of LJMU are hosting a 1-day FREE Masterclass on helping take you & your business to the next level.

It's led by Marie Burns who has consulted with businesses and organisations from small startup's to large organisations such as Coca Cola, BBC, Nokia & the Treasury.

Journey with us to the land of TEDx Liverpool - Yes it's back for the second year in a row. It was a packed house last year at FACT Liverpool so I am sure the tickets will go like hotcakes once again - but wait the tickets aren't on sale yet but rest assured we will let you know when they are. 

The next Breakerfaire meeting will take place at DoesLiverpool on the 11th of December, 2012 at 7pm entitled “Beneath the surface: an introduction to Information Hiding”

In this talk, we discuss three types of information hiding; steganography, fingerprinting and covert channels. We consider the motivations behind the use of each technique, real world examples and the fundamental problems with such techniques.

There is an exciting event (lets face it everything is exciting to me) taking place at Madlab next month for anyone who is interested in working with Yong People to give them the digital skills and creativity they are going to need. Advisors will be there to tell us how we can apply for the Digital Makers Fund.  

From robots to Raspberry Pi, hackdays to summers of code, more and more young people are creating with technology. But how can we inspire, involve and support a generation of digital makers?

Routes to Market is a series of intensive sessions designed by industry professionals to help participants understand the opportunities and routes to market available to independent content producers and to prepare them to take full advantage of these. These sessions will lead to the Futureproof Summit in February 2013; which will be attended by leading buyers, investors, publishers and brands.

Futureproof: Routes to Market, is a bespoke programme of activity and support for games and digital companies in the Liverpool City region.
