🎤 Keynote Speaker – Coming Soon

We’re currently working on the keynote speaker and topic for this Digital Hub, and we’ll be revealing more details soon.

As always, expect a thought-provoking session exploring technology, digital innovation or one of the big changes affecting businesses right now, but without the jargon.

Our keynote talks are designed to be accessible whether you work in technology or simply want to understand how it is changing the world around you. Expect a fast-paced, TED-style session with strong visuals, real-world stories and practical ideas you can actually take away and use.

We encourage our speakers to make their sessions as interactive as possible, so expect questions, audience involvement and the occasional surprise along the way.

The keynote will finish with a 5–10 minute Q&A, giving you the chance to put your own questions directly to the speaker.

🤖 Tech Update & AI Demos with Scott Quilter

Scott Quilter FBCS (Co-founder of Techosaurus) will guide you through the latest updates from Apple, Microsoft, Google, and Meta. Expect hands-on demos of tools like ChatGPT, Microsoft Co-Pilot, Claude, Firefly, and more.

Scott recently co-delivered a 10-week AI Skills Bootcamp with Yeovil College, helping business leaders apply AI in practical, profitable ways. His sessions are always interactive, jargon-free, and full of “aha!” moments you can take back to your business.

🙌 Hosted by Richard Howes

Richard is the founder of the Digital Hub and Sales Director at Kontrolit, a successful web agency based at the Yeovil Innovation Centre. With a background in technology and a knack for making the complex simple, Richard sets the scene for each event by giving a snapshot of the wider tech landscape before introducing the evening’s expert speakers.

As host, he keeps things moving, ensures everything stays jargon-free, and finishes the night with his signature light-hearted quiz—where one lucky winner bags a free ticket to the next event. You’ll usually spot him at the front in a brand-new funny T-shirt, giving the audience something extra to talk about over pizza.
