Keynote presentations
Jason Bradbury
In his keynote presentation for Housing Technology 2025, The Thousand-Year Decade, Jason Bradbury, best known as the face of The Gadget Show, will explore the truly profound technological transformations that will reshape our world over the next decade. With a particular focus on their implications for social housing and urban development, he will cover AI and its game-changing impact on business sectors and jobs, touching on subjects including energy, autonomous vehicles, robotics and much more. Jason will also delve into ethical challenges, the future of work, sustainability and the socio-economic shifts driven by new technologies from rapid prototyping to virtual reality. Drawing from his experience with AI, including building his own humanoid robot on The Gadget Show and his experience on MIT’s AI for Business Technologies course, he will provide clear definitions and actionable ideas and lead a fun and engaging conversation around creating smarter, more sustainable housing solutions for the future.
Panel discussion: Data standards - Does 'one size' really fit all?

During this panel discussion, we'll hear from three experts from the Ministry of Housing, Communities & Local Government, HACT and ODX on what they are doing to encourage data standards.
