Framing the Future – The Digital Divide

Author - Rebecca Graham

Date published:

Framing the Future is the Chamber’s new events series where we take a deep dive into the North East’s big political and economic issues with expert speakers to discuss their research and ideas.

This webinar will take a look at the UK’s digital divide, and the impact digital exclusion through an inability to access technology and an internet connection and a lack of digital skills has on those from disadvantaged backgrounds in the North East of England. We will explore possible ideas to solve the digital divide issues and help deliver opportunities to everyone in the UK fairly.

Speakers:

Emma Stone, Director of Design, Research and Comms at Good Things Foundation

Dr Sina Joneidy, Lecturer in Digital Enterprise at Teesside University Business School
