Deloitte Launches Tech Trends Report at Bloomberg Tech Dinner


Bloomberg Media has been chosen by Deloitte as its first ever media collaborator for its influential Tech Trends Report, which will be unveiled on February 25th.

Deloitte Tech Trends 2016 – Innovating in the Digital Era” will address how critical trends that are reshaping the way businesses operate in a global environment are driving product design, upending long-standing business models and rewiring competition.

The Bloomberg Tech Dinner, sponsored by Deloitte, will be an exclusive dinner and roundtable discussion hosted by Bloomberg News cybersecurity reporter Michael Riley, featuring GE Power Chief Information Officer Clay Johnson, Siege Technologies Founder and CEO Jason Syversen, and Siemens Head of Cyber Security for the Americas Ben Collar, as well as a select group of business and technology leaders. The discussion will zero in on the balance between security and innovation in a world where moon-shot ideas are becoming business reality and the security implications of the latest generation of tech tools for business, from the internet of things to blockchain and beyond.

The Bloomberg Tech Dinner roundtable will be live streamed at 7:30 pm EST at bloomberg.com/live/stream.

Deloitte is a sponsor of the forthcoming Bloomberg Tech Conference held on June 13-14, at The St. Regis in San Francisco.
