Whether your a computer wiz or cautiously curious about the technology of tomorrow, these are the events for you!

A New Model Internet confronts the oncoming spectre of nation states being given cyber sovereignty, and how this might herald the end of the internet as we know it. Computer Says Oh No! shines a light on the economic, social and cultural consequences of software reliability.

New York Times journalist Nicole Perlroth gives us an exclusive preview of her new book in The Cyberweapons Arms Race, taking us deep into the secret world of hackers and a new global warfare.
