Secure to Scale: Fuelling Business Growth Through Cybersecurity Event
The University of Bedfordshire is hosting a “Secure to Scale: Fuelling Business Growth Through Cybersecurity” event.
When: Thursday 16th July 2026 | 9.30am – 12.30pm

As autonomous systems and agentic workflows reshape digital infrastructure, legacy perimeter defences are no longer sufficient.
Join us for this free, in-person event designed to help SME owners, directors and senior managers across the South East Midlands understand the opportunities and risks associated with AI, cybersecurity, data governance and emerging technologies. As AI adoption accelerates, businesses must strengthen their approach to data protection, cyber resilience and responsible innovation to remain competitive and secure.
The event combines expert presentations, practical insights, discussion and networking. The keynote session, “Fortifying Security, Data and Trust in the AI Era and Beyond,” will explore how AI and autonomous systems are reshaping the threat landscape. Topics include data privacy risks, lessons from recent cyber-attacks, emerging security trends and AI-driven defence solutions.
What to expect:
- Gain insight into emerging cyber risks
- Learn how to protect your data and systems
- Understand how to create a security-aware culture
- Explore how AI can strengthen (not weaken) your defences
