OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected to start before the end of Hilary Term to allow all future events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed on the Staff Gateway and via email to identified OxTalks users.

what3words is an innovative mapping start up that has split the world up into 57 trillion 3×3m squares, each labelled with 3 words (e.g. the centre of the RadCam is space.divide.acted). The system has a range of uses in areas without reliable addresses, in disaster relief and event management. Jack will be talking about the concept, what’s next for what3words and life in a start-up.
