Top line-up of speakers set to address Spotlight

A top-line up of expert speakers will address Bondholder Spotlight, covering everything from artificial intelligence to exploring the ‘metaverse’.

Confirmed to speak at the event is Martin Broadhurst, of Broadhurst Digital.

The session, backed by Bates Weston, will see Martin discuss how to use artificial intelligence in your marketing strategy.

Martin recently delivered the same presentation at the Marketing Artificial Intelligence Conference, a major international conference which took place in the US.

Also confirmed is Keith Cox, co-founder and director of Bloc Digital.

His session, backed by Hardy Signs, will allow attendees to discover the potential of AR, VR and other immersive technologies – and how they can benefit businesses.

And taking to the Main Stage later in the day will be Jamie Thrasivoulou – an award-winning writer/educator and the official Derby County poet.

Jamie is the author of two poetry collections, two plays, and his work has been published widely in anthologies, journals, and newspapers.

An associate lecturer at the University of Derby, Jamie, who teaches poetry and creative writing within a variety of settings, from primary schools to prisons, has recently founded a community interest company called Word Wise Education CIC.

Word Wise is currently looking for investment and to form partnerships with local businesses and communities with an aim of delivering creative writing and literacy projects within Derby, Derbyshire, and the Midlands.

Bondholder Spotlight takes place from 8am to 5pm, on Thursday 13 October, at Reach Events, on Riverside Court.
