OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all 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 as soon as possible.

Rhodes Forum on Technology & Society 2024
There are a multitude of reasons to be optimistic about the future; the third annual Rhodes Forum on Technology & Society will bring together visionaries from the realms of science, technology, arts, and social innovation to discuss ground-breaking developments that paint a hopeful picture of tomorrow.
Through a series of keynotes, panel talks, and interactive sessions, the Forum will delve into the profound impacts of technology on society, and empower participants to explore, debate, and forge pathways toward a future where technology enhances societal well-being and global sustainability.
Join us at Rhodes House, Oxford or online on 2 November to hear how: – cutting-edge technology can transform infrastructure and public spaces to create environments that are not only more efficient but also more inclusive and participatory. – rising life expectancy in wealthier nations impacts social systems such as healthcare and pensions, requiring significant shifts in workforce strategies and elder care solutions. – the rise of commercial activity in space can help equitably and sustainably manage and conserve Earth’s resources. – AI can be a tool to empower people to build more productive and meaningful lives, rather than a threat to livelihoods.
