PANEL: What it takes to advance your career when the ground keeps shifting

14 Oct 2026
THEATRE 1
Career advancement doesn't work the way it used to. Technology is moving fast, and organisations are still working out what skills and roles will matter next. For Black tech talent, making sure the right opportunities are within reach means making time to experiment with new tools, building cross-industry relationships with people invested in your growth, and driving your own visibility. This session looks at how to make Black tech excellence impossible to ignore, find the people who can genuinely change your career path, and stay committed to your own learning even when the day job leaves little room for it.
