An Evening with Sir Tim Berners-Lee

A thought-provoking evening with Sir Tim Berners-Lee - one of the most influential inventors of the modern world who shared his invention, the World Wide Web, for no commercial reward. Its widespread adoption changed everything — transforming humanity into the first digital species.

We were delighted to offer members front row tickets to this quickly sold out event organised by Intelligence Squared.

 

Drawing on his newly published memoir, This is For Everyone, Berners-Lee explored how the web launched a new era of creativity and collaboration, while also unleashing a commercial race that can threaten democracy and polarise public debate. With his technical insight and wry humour, Berners-Lee discussed the power of technology - both to fuel our worst instincts and to profoundly shape our lives for the better.
