His talk will be followed by a live on-stage interview, after which attendees will be welcomed to pose their own questions in a Q&A session.

“It is an honour to welcome Randy Pitchford to Brighton to deliver our opening keynote," said Andy Lane, managing director of event organisers, Tandem Events.
