Next Tech Shift
You’re not the only one.
You’re Not the Only One Feeling This
Maybe you’ve seen the headlines about AI replacing jobs and wondered what that actually means for you.
Maybe you’re part-way through studying or training for something and quietly asking yourself whether it’ll still matter.
Maybe you’re not even sure what kind of career you want yet — and all this talk about the future of work is making that feel harder, not easier.
That’s not a failure. That’s just where a lot of people your age are right now.
Next Tech Shift exists because those questions deserve honest answers — not hype, not panic, and not a list of buzzwords that leaves you more confused than when you started.

What is Next Tech Shift?
Next Tech Shift is a one-day online festival for people aged 16–24.
Through live talks, interactive workshops and Q&A sessions, you’ll meet employers, educators and professionals working across technology, digital and creative industries.
You’ll get a practical view of how work is changing, discover careers you may not have considered and explore the different routes into them.
Whether AI makes you feel curious, excited, unsure, or a bit of everything, you’re welcome.
Honest Conversations About Where Work Is Heading
AI and automation are already reshaping industries — but not always in the ways the headlines suggest. You’ll hear from people working alongside these tools every day, talking openly about what’s actually changing and what remains genuinely, stubbornly human.
Careers You Might Never Have Considered
Technology careers aren’t just for people who want to write code. Design, research, project delivery, marketing, accessibility, product management — there are more ways into this world than most people realise. And one of the things we hear most from young people is that they didn’t know a job existed until they stumbled across it. We’re going to change that.
Real Stories That Don’t Skip The Hard Parts
Not polished success stories. Honest ones. You’ll hear from people across Scotland and Northern England talking openly about how they got started, the setbacks they hit, and what they’d do differently. The kind of conversations that actually help.
Space To Ask The Questions You Actually Have
Live Q&A built into every session. No question is too basic.
If you’re wondering it, someone else probably is too.

What value would you put on bringing one person into the business that created a competitive advantage? This is someone who could set a water tight brand, someone that could be your brand's guardian, creating graphic design and setting a consistent tone of voice, both online and in-person. This same person would also be charged with bringing your company's story to life through video and animation and make sure you take your message to market with an agile, value adding website and lead generating workflow. What salary would you put on that person, and would retaining that person not become a massive competitive advantage to your business? That is your creative competitive advantage.That is Multiplied By.
