Bringing together experts from technology, creativity, enterprise, and education, The Future is Now event celebrated East London’s remarkable transformation and explored strategies to drive even greater growth.
Jointly hosted by Here East, Lendlease, Stratford Cross, London Legacy Development Corporation, Delancey, and Plexal, the early October event featured prominent figures from across the Olympic Park, local leaders, and industry specialists. Together, they celebrated East London’s transformation story and examined how to unlock even greater growth and collaboration going forward.
Through a series of thought-provoking panel discussions in Plexal at Here East and networking sessions at Bread Street Kitchen at Stratford Cross, together we interrogated key questions: What ingredients are needed to fuel growth and innovation? How can the next generation upskill to navigate this? How can we nurture our capital’s creative talent?
